Increasingly depleted Gunners forced to settle for point

Mohamed Salah scored a late equaliser as Liverpool twice came from behind against Arsenal to earn a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium. The Egyptian turned home after Darwin Nunez squared with ten minutes remaining, with Arne Slot’s side rewarded for largely dominating the second-half. It leaves Liverpool a point behind leaders Manchester City, as Arsenal remain four points behind the Reds.

Liverpool had trailed at half-time, after Arsenal produced one of their best 45-minute displays of the season. Bukayo Saka, back from injury and straight into the starting lineup, opened the scoring inside nine minutes, racing onto a brilliant ball from Ben White, chopping inside Andy Robertson and firing past Caoimhin Kelleher. Virgil van Dijk provided the swift response for Liverpool, heading in from a corner, but Arsenal restored their lead before the break.

Mikel Merino, who had earlier in the half missed a huge chance, made no mistake from Declan Rice’s free-kick, powering in a header of his own to get off the mark in an Arsenal shirt. The second half was a cagier affair, Liverpool pressing and Arsenal dropping deeper. With Jurrien Timber and Gabriel forced off with injury, it was maybe no real surprise that Liverpool took advantage down that flank. Trent Alexander-Arnold played Darwin Nunez in behind, he rolled the ball into the path of Salah and the finish was as composed as it was inevitable.
