London England.
Arsenal held their own against Liverpool’s attacks, especially in the second half where they had the victory in hand with two shots on the woodwork, and left Anfield with a point (1-1), enough to maintain dominance in the Premier League.
Arsenal has yet to win at Anfield, having not achieved three points at this venue since the 2012-13 season, with its coach, Mikel Arteta, as a player. But he ended up standing, involved in the game, faithful to his style and without giving up a victory that, at times, was closer to his rival.
Manchester United remains in crisis and suffers another defeat in the Premier
The tie does not completely satisfy anyone. What’s more, it leaves the fight for leadership more than open. None of the first three managed to win. Not even Unai Emery’s Aston Villa, third, who couldn’t beat the bottom team, Sheffield. Neither Arsenal, first, nor Liverpool, second. Only Tottenham, fourth, achieved victory against Everton.

So much setback benefits the current champion, Manchester City, which has one game less and can return to the fight if it wins its pending match on this eighteenth day.
With the top at stake, no one won. Not Liverpool, not Arsenal; in a match without respite, at an intense pace, the one implemented by Jurgen Klopp’s team and that Mikel Arteta’s team took the lead well after four minutes, in a set-piece action, executed by the Norwegian Martin Odegaard who Gabriel Magalhaes took advantage of his header to expose the local defense and their goalkeeper, Ederson.
The Gunners who were more adapted to the situation took advantage. Liverpool, which has been unbeaten in the Premier for ten games, began to react. He got the ball and added speed to the duel. He tied after half an hour. On a long pass from Trent Alexander Arnold towards Mohamed Salah on the right wing. The Egyptian got rid of Oleksandr Zinchenko, entered the area and executed a great shot that beat David Raya.

Klopp’s team seemed to win the game, although the last option before the intermission was for the London team, in the boots of Gabriel Martinelli who, with Ederson out of position, outside the goal, shot a shot that grazed the post when it seemed like a goal.
