Mohamed Salah’s second-half strike ensured it was honours even between Arsenal and Liverpool as both sides played out an entertaining 2-2 draw at the Emirates.
The hosts went ahead early when the returning Bukayo Saka finished emphatically past Caoimhin Kelleher but were pegged back by Virgil van Dijk’s header from a set piece.
Mikel Merino, making his first Premier League start at home, headed home from a free-kick to give the Gunners the lead at the half-time break.
But injuries to Gabriel and Jurrien Timber saw the home side retreat into their shell and they were punished in the 81st minute when Salah slotted past David Raya to secure a point and maintain Arne Slot’s unbeaten away record as Liverpool boss.
