Liverpool have appeared to be back on track in their bid to retain the silverware and they are clearly not taking any chances about it.

Arsenal’s Lacazette got his second goal of the league and the first of the match as the Frenchman fired a rebound in the middle of the goal making it 1-0 in favour of the gunners in the 25th minute.

Just 3 minutes later, Sadio Mane is left with one of the simplest task to roll the ball into an empty goal from a close range after the goalkeeper was left stranded after a rebound leveling the game.

Andrew Robertson latched on to a precise lofted pass in the box and fired the ball in the middle of the goal scoring Liverpool’s second goal making it 2-1 in favour of Liverpool as they headed into halftime.

Diogo Jota who made a debut for Liverpool sealed the victory, picked up a rebound outside the box, steadied himself and unleashed a shot that deflected off the post to the bottom left corner beating the helpless goalkeeper making it 3-1 in the 88th minute.

Liverpool appeared to be in control of the match as they recorded 66% possession against Arsenal’s 34%. Liverpool had 21 goal attempts with 8 shots on target while Arsenal recorded 4 and 3 respectively.
