In a highly contested match at Anfield, Arsenal drew 1-1 with Liverpool. Gabriel’s early goal was nullified by a stunning strike from Mohamed Salah.
Despite both teams pushing for victory, they ended up sharing the points. Arsenal’s wait for a win at Anfield continues, stretching into a 12th year.
The early goal from Gabriel was the result of a perfectly executed training ground routine that exposed Liverpool’s high line.
The visitors were fully engaged, and while they left with a point, it was achieved in a different manner than Manchester United’s recent game at Anfield, where United showed no attacking intent.
Liverpool’s equalizer came from Trent Alexander-Arnold’s visionary pass that dropped over the head of Oleksandar Zinchenko, leading to Salah’s goal. Both teams had chances to secure the win, with thrilling moments and near misses.
The draw means that Arsenal moves a point clear at the top of the Premier League table for Christmas, but the Premier League’s top two clubs deservedly shared the spoils in this highly anticipated encounter.
