Liverpool moved to within one point of the leaders Manchester City after a hard-fought 2-0 win over Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.Diogo Jota and the ...
An awful backpass from Thiago is intercepted by Lacazette, who shields the ball from Alisson and plays it back to Odegaard on the edge of the area. The goal was created quite brilliantly by Robertson, who won the ball high up the field from Saka and surged into the area from the left. He got a good hand on the ball but could only push it into the net rather than round the post.56 min Jota's goal was his last touch - he and Luis Diaz are replaced by Mo Salah and Roberto Firmino.Diogo Jota scores against Arsenal again! We had half-time to correct things, we did it and we dominated the second half." Martinelli tries with another of his solo runs, but this time he runs the ball out of play.70 min Smith Rowe has a shot blocked by Matip. Arsenal are starting to get frustrated with a few refereeing decisions, and with the scoreline.67 min Emile Smith Rowe replaces Martin Odegaard, who had a great chance to give Arsenal the lead just before Jota's goal.65 min The last 10 minutes have been a savage lesson for Arsenal, and a painful reminder that - for all their admirable improvement - they are still a long way short of the best teams.Roberto Firmino makes it two! Liverpool move to within one point of Manchester City after a hard-fought win at the Emirates. They were made to work extremely hard by Arsenal, particularly during an intriguing first half.Liverpool upped the tempo after half-time and took control through goals from Diogo Jota and the substitute Roberto Firmino. Aaron Ramsdale, one of the stars of Arsenal's season, was badly at fault for the first goal. There was still plenty to encourage Mikel Arteta, not least a virtuouso performance from Gabriel Martinelli, but ultimately Liverpool's class and experience were decisive.88 min A lovely move from Arsenal. Smith Rowe, Partey and Xhaka work the ball across the field to Martinelli, who shapes a first-time curling shot back across goal. Their battle for the title in 2018-19 was immense; this year's might be even better.74 min Nicolas Pepe replaces Bukayo Saka, whose individual performance was a microcosm of Arsenal's: superb in the first half, subdued in the second.74 min Liverpool are in complete control, and Arsenal need something to get the crowd going. It was a more defensive performance for me and Trent tonight – Martinelli and Saka are really hard work – but it was nice to get an assist as well. It’s really special, not having a brilliant first half and then turning the game our way.“[On the instant substitution after the first goal] We wanted to bring fresh players on. Let’s just keep going and we’ll see.”“Our high press was not as accurate as it normally is in the first half. I was not angry at half-time – I just wanted us to change a few things, and that’s what the boys did.
LONDON -- The old cliche is that champions win when they are not playing well. That may well still be true but this was a rather different display to ...
As always seems to be the case with the Frenchman he was not in an optimum position to take a shot but he instead teed up Odegaard. A first-time strike might have been too much to stop though perhaps the pass could have come to him in stride. "I know the only chance we have is to win an incredible amount of football games. But if they do we may yet look back on this game as among the consummate performances of this excellent season, one where they emphatically won the moments as any champion must do. Four mistakes, none of them necessarily woeful, but with them the game was gone. With Mohamed Salah only fit enough for a spot on the bench it was up to others to deliver. It is to Mikel Arteta's credit that that period was the exception in this game. That is the mark of the very best teams, the differentiating factor between a good Arsenal team and a great Liverpool. For the former this need not be critical to their chances of finishing fourth. Such is the joy of having players who only need an inch, a moment to swing a game in their favor. For a time they were struggling to do so, not aided by a supply line that was not as consistent as usual. Even with a touch he should have scored but his shot was too close to Alisson, whose giant glove deflected it to safety. That is progress for Arsenal, so often cancelled by Liverpool. They shaded the first 50 or so minutes but until Odegaard's miss Alisson had precious little with which to concern himself. That may well still be true but this was a rather different display to burnish Liverpool's title credentials.
