An own goal by Marci Verratti in the 59th minute put Arsenal 2-1 up but Lucas Moura’s header with the slightest with an unfortunate touch from Iwobi handed the Parisians a valuable point from the game.
The draw saw PSG regain top spot in Group A with a superior head to head over Arsenal after five games.
