Gol 16wein minute mein hua aur is ki shuruaat Liverpool ki aik ghalti se hui. Goalkeeper Alisson ne goal-kick se khel banane ki koshish ki toh Arsenal ne gend wapas jeet li, Declan Rice dayein taraf se gend le kar aage barhe, aur un ke neeche cross par back post par akele khare Havertz ne gend ko gol mein dhakel diya.

Liverpool ne 17 koshishein kein lekin David Raya ke paar jaane ka koi raasta nahin nikal saka. Florian Wirtz ki free-kick pehle half mein crossbar se takrayi aur Alexis Mac Allister, jinhein akela chhor diya gaya tha, Milos Kerkez ke cross par head se gend gol ke oopar se nikal baithe. Un ki penalty ki mazboot appeals bhi mustarad kar di gayin jab Jurrien Timber ne Alexander Isak ki jersey kheenchi.
