( Hannah McKay / REUTERS )LONDON—The English Premier League’s north London rivals left it late to snatch points on Saturday, with Tottenham outdoing Arsenal with its comeback. Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud scored only his third Premier League goal of the season to retrieve a 1-1 draw at Manchester United. Liverpool remained on top despite being held by Southampton to 0-0, but Manchester City was only behind on goal difference after winning at Crystal Palace 2-1. Juan Mata’s 68th-minute goal put United ahead, the playmaker meeting a right-wing cutback by Ander Herrera with a low, first-time shot into the corner.
