Saka was at the centre of controversy as the Gunners saw a potential goal ruled out for offside.
The linesman flagged for offside despite it initially appearing that there was no offence.
However, replays showed it was the right call because Martin Odegaard’s pass flicked off Saka’s heel before the ball fell to Eddie Nketiah.
And when the touch happened the Arsenal striker was in fact in an offside position, hence denying the North Londoners an opening goal.
But they then found themselves on the wrong end of another decision after William Saliba brought Jarrod Bowen down inside the area.
Said Benrahma stepped up to convert the penalty past Aaron Ramsdale, much to the dismay of a returning Arsene Wenger.
The legendary boss has returned to the Emirates for the first time since leaving the club in 2018.
But Saka and Gabriel Martinelli have since drawn the hosts level and put them ahead in the second half.
Meanwhile, Arsenal have submitted a £52.5million bid for Ukrainian winger Mykhaylo Mudryk.
