Bukayo Saka Scores As Arsenal Beat Liverpool 3-2
Bukayo Saka scores as Arsenal beat Liverpool 3-2, the gunners have regained top Premier League spot.
Mikel Arteta’s side have emerged as title challengers and this hard-fought success at the Emirates Stadium was another significant statement of intent.
Gabriel Martinelli scored the opening goal before Darwin Nunez bagged an equalizer for Liverpool.
Saka put Arsenal back in front late in the first half. Although Roberto Firmino equalised after the interval, Saka’s nerveless penalty sealed Arsenal’s eighth win from their nine league matches.
The Gunners are one point clear of champions Manchester City, who had taken pole position with a win over Southampton on Saturday.
Last weekend’s 3-1 win over Tottenham added to the growing feeling that Arteta has built a team worth taking seriously. The way they refused to be denied by Liverpool underlined that impression.
