Liverpool edged past Arsenal 1-0 at Anfield thanks to a moment of brilliance from Dominik Szoboszlai, opening up a three-point gap over the Gunners in the Premier League title race.
The Hungarian midfielder settled the contest in the 83rd minute with a thunderous 32-yard free-kick that flew beyond a helpless David Raya.
Arsenal’s evening was made worse by the early loss of William Saliba, who limped off after just five minutes with an ankle injury.
The victory keeps Liverpool two points ahead of second-placed Manchester City and extends their cushion over Arsenal to three, underlining their credentials as favourites to retain the Premier League crown
