Szoboszlai's spectacular free-kick seals victory for Liverpool over Arsenal in the early-season title contest, prolonging their undefeated streak.
In a physical test lacking both quality and clear-cut chances, Liverpool emerged victorious against Arsenal in a 1-0 win. The game was a drab encounter, with neither side mustering a serious shot until the 60th minute.
Arsenal winger Noni Madueke posed problems for Milos Kerkez at the other end, winning numerous corners midway through the first half. However, Arsenal's star defender William Saliba limped off the field in the fifth minute of the game, leaving a gap in the Gunners' defence. No details are provided about the injury sustained by Saliba.
Liverpool, who have started their title defence with three wins, were not immune to injuries either. Ibrahima Konate had to leave the field, with summer signing Cristhian Mosquera taking his place.
The game looked like it was heading towards a goalless draw until the 83rd minute, when Dominik Szoboszlai scored a stunning free-kick. The Hungarian's effort kissed the inside of the post before beating David Raya. Szoboszlai's goal sent Liverpool to the top of the Premier League table.
In the Arsenal camp, record signing Florian Wirtz limped off as the clock wound down. The win for Liverpool comes as they are rumored to be making moves for Alexander Isak and Marc Guehi on deadline day.
The name of the Arsenal coach present at the reported match against Liverpool is Mikel Arteta. The game saw several key moments, such as Virgil van Dijk intercepting Raya's underhit pass but failing to find Mohamed Salah, and Cody Gakpo driving inside and sending an early 25-yarder skipping wide. Kerkez also sent a Madueke shot looping behind, providing a few close calls for the Reds.
Despite the challenges and injuries faced by both teams, Liverpool managed to secure the win, demonstrating their resilience and determination in their title defence.
