Liverpool came out on top over Arsenal (1-0) in the third round duel of the Premier League 25/26, which pitted last season's champion and runner-up against each other at Anfield. Viktor Gyokeres - who was called up for the Swedish national team - was a starter for the London team and played the full 90 minutes of the match.
Playing at Anfield, the 'reds' dominated the match, especially in the second half, but Arsenal seemed to be heading towards resisting and returning to London with a point. The former forward of Sporting had a discreet performance and rarely had chances to make a difference.
At 83 minutes, Hungarian international Dominik Szoboszlai scored the only goal of the match, in a superb transformation of a free kick from quite a distance, and gave Liverpool the three points, despite Arsenal coming close to a draw in the final moments.
Arne Slot's charges thus remain 100% victorious in the competition, with nine points, alongside Chelsea, the only other team that only knows how to win after three rounds. Arsenal, who had also won two victories in the first two rounds, maintains the same six points.
After a brilliant season with the lions, Viktor Gyokeres - valued at 75 million euros - has played three games for Arsenal, all for the Premier League. In the 240 minutes he has with the Gunners' jersey, the Swede has already scored two goals, both against Leeds.
