Over football news in England, Liverpool’s hopes of setting a new Premier League record with high points are over, following a 2-1 defeat at Arsenal.
Sadio Mane put Liverpool ahead after 20 minutes of play, sliding home a cross from Andrew Robertson. The Gunners then came back into the match as Alexandre Lacazette took advantage of a dreadful back-pass by Virgil Van Dyke to equalize in the 32nd minute.
Alisson's poor clearance then allowed Reiss Nelson to score for the North Londoners in the 44th minute. With Arsenal's 2-1 home victory, League Champions Liverpool failed to reach the 100-point milestone set by then-champions Manchester City two seasons ago. Meanwhile, the Gunners sit in 9th place, with 53 points.
