The joy is not just the goal Dominik Szoboszlai scored but rather them beating Arsenal.

The Gunners have always kept their position and ensured they give the top six (6) teams a run for their money.

In a highly anticipated game between Liverpool and Arsenal, it was tough to call but surely the urge to break free lead D. Szoboszlai to take on former Liverpool teammates job to give Liverpool the only goal of the game.

Arne Slot and his team are the defending champions of the EPL and much is surely expected of them in their defence but teams like Arsenal can always be a thorn in their flesh.

Anfield is a fortress that only a few have managed to upset and with the current defensive line of Liverpool, it looked as though the fast attack was going to cause a lot of trouble but Liverpool were able to neutralise it.

With the important statistics in the favour of Liverpool ie;
Posession 53 against 47, Shots on target 3 against 1 it was clear who was in control of the game.

The game was heated with both sides throwing in attacks, Liverpool although having the upper hand still threaded cautiously knowing Arsenal can break and turn the tables at any time.

Their chess game ended the first half without a goal until the second half.

Arteta had the chance to introduce new signee Eze after making a double sub for Martin Ødegaard and Eberechi Eze in the 70’. The introduction of these two players changed a lot on the field as Eze’s solo effort into the Liverpool goal area ‘almost’ won him a penalty.

Former Liverpool now Real Madrid player Trent Alexander-Arnold known for his set-piece prowess would have been missed if not the fact that Dominik Szoboszlai stepped up to prove a point.

In the 83’ Liverpool were awarded a free-kick in a TAA zone but this time, it was a DS proving point.

Szoboszlai in confidence lifted the ball over the Arsenal wall and into the net to give Liverpool what stood to be the only goal separating the sides.

Arsenal’s fight for a comeback was short lived as Liverpool defended their lone goal till the end of proceedings.
