"I am very disappointed with the result. I'm very proud of my players. Both [sets of] players had to dig in to a level where there was nothing between the two. It was going to be decided by an individual error or a moment of magic. You cannot dominate here for 90 minutes; it is impossible. At the end of the game, I said we have to find a way to win these big matches."
"You have to put the ball in the back of the net when you have it. We were much better than last year, when we drew [2-2] here, much better. We have to put the ball in the back of the net if you want to win the game. We lost Martin [Odegaard], we lost Kai [Havertz], and then we lost Bukayo [Saka]. In the warm-up, we lost [William] Saliba."
Liverpool beat Arsenal 1-0 thanks to Dominik Szoboszlai's 83rd-minute free-kick, preserving a 100% start to the Premier League season. The result ended Arsenal's 15-game away unbeaten run and extended their long winless record at Anfield to 13 Premier League matches. Arsenal produced more shots (11 to 9) and higher expected goals (0.55 to 0.45) but managed only one shot on target, from Noni Madueke. Arsenal suffered multiple fitness setbacks, losing William Saliba in the warm-up and also missing Martin Ødegaard, Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka during the tie.
