Arsenal reaffirms status with win over Liverpool to move into first place
Kai Havertz's 16th-minute tap-in proved decisive for Arsenal.
Arsenal solidified its position at the top of the Premier League table after a 1-0 win against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday. The victory came just four days after a penalty shootout loss to League Cup opponents Fleetwood Town, raising concerns about the team's morale and preparation for the upcoming fixture. However, with this recent triumph, Arsenal's defense against the Red Devils appeared to be back in top form, having gone 14 years without a league win at Anfield.
The match in Liverpool concluded the league leaders' quest to reclaim the three-point lead they currently hold over Manchester City.
