(CNN) -- Manchester United missed the chance to close to within a point of leaders Chelsea as they needed a second half equalizer from substitute Michael Owen to salvage a 2-2 draw at Bolton on Sunday.
Bolton twice led through Zak Knight and Martin Petrov but were pegged back by strikes from Nani and Owen, who was scoring his 200th goal in English club football.
The draw was enough to see United leapfrog Arsenal into second in the standings, three points behind champions Chelsea, who were beaten 1-0 at Manchester City on Saturday.
Owen, who scored with a glancing header in the 74th minute within moments of coming on at the Reebok, said the team were disappointed not to have come away with three points.
"We created enough chances and dominated so we're disappointed to only get a point," Owen told Press Association.
