Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang had put the Gunners in front, sweeping home after a neat move from Mikel Arteta’s side, who led 1-0 at the break at Selhurst Park.
Jordan Ayew levelled things up after half-time, with his heavily deflected shot cannoning off David Luiz beyond Bernd Leno, before Aubameyang was sent off for a heavy challenge on Max Meyer.
With that he equalled Craven’s feat having scored in the reverse fixture that ended 2-2 at the Emirates Stadium.
Ayew has now scored home and away against Arsenal in the Premier League this season even though the huge deflection to helped him to get the goal.
