After a drab first half that failed to capture the imagination, Liverpool and Arsenal toiled in a close tie between the would-be title rivals.

But it was Dominik Szoboszlai who dragged the reds over the line with a blockbusting free kick to seal the points for Arne Slot’s men with a win. It was a victory that maintains the Reds’ 100% start to the season heading into the international break.
