Liverpool have to draw with Arsenal and lose the chance to reach the top of the table

By winning the points at Anfield, Arsenal maintained first place with 40 points. Liverpool ranks second with 39 points, ahead of surprise team Aston Villa, which has the same number of points.

The derby began with a cold shower for Klopp: Brazilian Gabriel Jesus quickly put Arsenal in front. Then a wild game developed.

First Liverpool were denied a penalty kick after a handball from Martin Odegaard, then Mohamed Salah equalised.

With 151 goals, Al-Masry is now in tenth place in the list of top scorers in the English Premier League, topping Alan Shearer (260).

Tsimikas knocks out Klopp and is forced to leave injured

Even after the equalizer, the top team kept its promise. Things got interesting after a duel between Bukayo Saka and Konstantinos Tsimikas on the outside line. Tsimikas went down, Klopp was ruled out, and had to be replaced due to shoulder pain.

After the break, Liverpool were in front, but it was not enough to win and move into first place.

“We were very nervous in an amazing atmosphere,” Klopp explained to Sky. He was happy with the game, even though they didn't develop enough attacking intensity in the second half.
