Bukayo Saka Sinks Troubled Liverpool As Arsenal Regain Premier League Top Spot
NDTV
Premier League: Bukayo Saka struck twice after Gabriel Martinelli's first-minute goal as Arsenal beat Liverpool 3-2 at the Emirates.
Arsenal returned to the top of the Premier League and plunged Liverpool's into turmoil as Bukayo Saka's double inspired a thrilling 3-2 win on Sunday. Mikel Arteta's side have emerged as title challengers and this hard-fought success at the Emirates Stadium was another significant statement of intent. The Gunners took the lead inside the first minute through Gabriel Martinelli before Darwin Nunez equalised 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.
While Arsenal are on the up, Liverpool are in turmoil after their worst start for 10 years.
Without a win in their last three league games, Jurgen Klopp's men are languishing 14 points behind Arsenal in 10th place. They look a shadow of the side that came within two games of an unprecedented quadruple last season.
