Arsenal Defeats Liverpool As Bournemouth Rises

Arsenal finally broke a thirteen-visit winless drought at Anfield on Sunday by locking down a tight lead against Liverpool. Mikel Arteta watched his side hold firm while Liverpool failed to manage a single shot on target all match. Kai Havertz scored the decisive goal to leave Liverpool nine points behind Arsenal with a quarter of the season gone. Meanwhile, Bournemouth is surging forward after winning six straight matches and scoring sixteen unanswered goals. Djordje Petrovic has not conceded since a five-one defeat against Chelsea back on October tenth. Over at Tottenham, eighteen-year-old Luca Williams-Barnett made his long-awaited league debut in the eighty-eighth minute against Crystal Palace. He immediately set up Mohammed Kudus for a great chance that was ultimately spurned. Fabian Hürzeler also guided Brighton to a crucial one-nil victory over Manchester City to reach nineteen points.
