London: Arsenal climbed to third in the Premier League by coming from behind Saturday to beat Norwich 3-1 on Saturday, making a strong finish to the season to make amends for its miserable start.
Michael Turner put Norwich in front at the start of the second half. But Mikel Arteta leveled from the penalty spot in the 85th minute before Arsenal benefited from Sebastien Bassong's own goal and Lukas Podolski's late strike.
Arsenal climbed a point above Chelsea and Tottenham into third. Chelsea have a game in hand.
Everton strengthened its grip on fifth place and plunged Queens Park Rangers closer to relegation by winning 2-0, while bottom-place Reading held Liverpool 0-0.
Wigan, who are also in the drop zone, are playing Millwall on Saturday in the FA Cup semi-finals.
