An Arsenal fan was ejected from Stamford Bridge after running onto the pitch to celebrate a goal which was then disallowed.  

Shkodran Mustafi thought he had given the visitors the lead when he headed in a free-kick in the 76th minute.

But the German's celebrations were short lived as referee Michael Oliver pulled play back for offside.

Mustafi had been well into his celebrations by that point, as was one of Arsenal's supporters.

The man invaded the pitch in an attempt to join the defender but was quickly escorted away.

Unfortunately for Arsenal they were unable to find a winning goal despite being up against 10 men in the closing stages. 

However, the point is a welcome one with Arsene Wenger's team having lost all five of their previous visits to Stamford Bridge.
