Liverpool vs Arsenal: Reds Extend Premier League Lead

The duel of candidates for the English crown that held this Saturday Liverpool and Arsenal in Anfield fell on the side of the premises, after a superb goal of Dominik Szoboszlai who hit the stick before entering and before which David Raya could not do anything. The meeting reflected absolute equality between the two teams and decided on a detail, a direct free that did not appear to be very dangerous, except for the great ability of the Hungarian pitcher.

The triumph of Liverpool makes him a solo leader of the Premier and the only team that has won his first three games of the championship. The two previous games against the Bournemouth and the Newcastle had unexpected heroes in the last bars of both clashes, such as Federico Chiesa and Rio Ngumoha, and this Saturday the tonic remained. The ‘reds’ are not being able to master the meetings, but to get the results forward, which makes them the most dangerous team in the competition.

The ‘Gunners’ left eager to surprise and had their rival restless during much of the game, although they were not able to materialize that sometimes. Arne Slot’s approach caught his attention, since Szoboszlai, author of the goal, played in the right side position before Jeremie Frimpong’s loss. The arsenal could not percate for that band through the quality of the newcomer Eberrechi Eze, which was cornered by Szoboszlai, supported by the central Joe Gomez.

From the first measures it seemed that Slot was not able to bend in Anfield the approach of Mikel Arteta, which lost an important cash after William’s injury Saliba after five minutes. This decline binds to those of Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka and a Renqueante Martin Odegaard, although this does not translate into bad results, since the ‘gunners’ are an increasingly perfect machinery despite losing pieces along the way.

Solo leaders

This result leaves Liverpool leader before the selections stop. The ‘reds’ put three points ahead of their main persecutor, the arsenal. This triumph charges more value after the stumbling block of Manchester City this Sunday against Brighton, which revives the traumas of the Pep Guardiola team seen last season. There are six points below and although it is still early and the teams still feel at the end of the preseason, the City, which was in the pools next to Liverpool and Arsenal, seems not to be able to follow the rhythm of its two rivals. In fact, the feeling in this beginning of the championship is that Chelsea seems to even have won the game as the third in discord.
