The start was extremely favorable, but in the end Arsenal could not earn all 3 points against Liverpool.

Under coach Klopp, Anfield is like a nightmare for Arsenal . The last 6 times they marched here in the Premier League, the Gunners lost all 6 and received 22 goals.

Before the match in the 30th round, coach Arteta very much hopes for a change of luck for the home team. Arsenal in his hand is leading the Premier League with impressive form. While Liverpool sinks in 8th place and has almost no chance to compete for the Champions League spot.

The match was exciting from the very first seconds. Both teams entered the game with a determination to win and push up the squad to play offensively.

In a tit-for-tat game, Arsenal was the team that found the lead. Unfortunately for Liverpool when the “creater” for Martinelli to score again was midfielder Van Dijk.

Facing the opponent’s quick ball, Van Dijk did not have the best blocking posture. An unsuccessful attempt to clear the ball from the Dutch midfielder accidentally put Martinelli in front of the goalkeeper and then the goal for Arsenal.

Martinelli celebrates a goal.

By the 28th minute, the score was increased to 2-0. Once again Liverpool’s defense made a serious mistake. Van Dijk and Robertson did not have the necessary contact, so that the player who did not have a good height, Gabriel Jesus, comfortably received the cross and headed the net.

Gabriel Jesus doubles the gap.

Many Arsenal fans thought of victory after the second goal. The Gunners have a big advantage in their hands and have plenty of opportunities to counter-attack, with plenty of space for Saka and Martinelli.

But when pushed to the end, Liverpool once again showed how the fulcrum Anfield can bring a great source of strength.

The home team worked hard to attack and found a goal to shorten the score at the end of the first half. The coordinated situation was as programmed, Jones hit his heel, Jota escaped to the left and stretched, Henderson tried to push the ball towards the far post, Salah was present at the right time to hit the net.

Early in the second half, Salah made Liverpool fans hold their heads in regret with a broken penalty. The Egyptian striker could not even put the ball on target.

Salah regretted after the 11m failed to eat.

However, Liverpool are not discouraged. They continue to maintain great pressure on the Arsenal goal. And then in the 87th minute, the Red Brigade was rewarded with an equalizer. Trent Alexander-Arnold has a “needle thread” phase past Zinchenko and then crosses the ball into the 5m50 area. Firmino accurately headed the open goal, bringing the game back to the starting line.

Firmino is Liverpool’s hero.

The final minutes of the match was a time when Arsenal fans constantly experienced a heart-pounding feeling. Liverpool created a series of dangerous situations in front of goalkeeper Ramsdale. Fortunately for the Gunners when Ramsdale had outstanding reflexes to keep the sheet clean.

2-2 is the final result of the match. Both teams have their own regrets. If Liverpool had made better use of the opportunities at the end of the match, they could have won all 3 points and raised a slim hope of winning tickets to the European Cup.

As for Arsenal, losing points despite leading 2 goals is clearly what makes coach Arteta not satisfied. The Gunners are currently 6 points ahead of Man City but have played more than one match. In the immediate future, Arsenal still have 1 trip to face Man City in the 33rd round. A mistake at the decisive moment can completely ruin the Emirates team’s all-season effort.
