Liverpool made it three from three to continue their perfect start to the season, with a come from behind 3-1 win over Arsenal at Anfield on Monday night football.
Arsenal had won the 2 previous meetings between the sides and raced to the lead against the run of play, but there was to be no repeat as Liverpool fought back superbly.
Alexandre Lacazette gave the visitors the lead pouncing on Andrew Robertson’s mistake to put Arsenal ahead inside 25 minutes.
Sadio Mane responded quickly with a strike of his own three minutes later for the dominant Liverpool side who had earlier rattled the wood work on 21 minutes after Trent Alexander-Arnold drive from the edge of the box.
It didn’t take long for the champions to race to the lead, with Robertson atoning for his earlier mistake with his side second of the game.
Lacazette missed a golden opportunity to draw his side level but could not get past the ever reliable Alisson.
And he was made to pay for his finishing as substitute Diego Jota put the game to bed as the reds debutant volleyed in the third on 88 minutes to seal victory and end Arsenal’s perfect start while extending theirs.
