Arsenal beat Liverpool 1-0 at Anfield on Sunday, taking over the top spot in the Premier League. Kai Havertz scored the decisive goal in the first half, with Declan Rice providing the assist.
The win was Arsenal’s first league victory at Anfield since 2012. For Mikel Arteta’s side, it ended a long wait at one of the toughest away grounds in English football and delivered three points in a match between two title contenders.
Rice created the opening with a pass that set up a two-on-one situation, and Havertz finished. The early goal gave Arsenal a lead to protect; Liverpool pushed for an equaliser but could not find a way through the visitors’ defence.
Arsenal’s organisation held firm under pressure. Liverpool finished without a shot on target, while Arteta said his team had created six or seven major chances of its own. He rejected the idea that the visitors had only defended, pointing to their attacking moments as well as their work without the ball.
The result puts Arsenal alone at the top of the table. It does not, by itself, establish their points advantage or how the rest of the weekend’s results affect the gap. For Liverpool, the loss ends a run in which Arteta said they had won every game, and leaves them behind their rivals in this meeting.
Havertz’s goal and Rice’s assist were the key moments, but Arsenal also had to withstand Liverpool’s attempts to respond. Arteta described the win as especially significant for people connected to the club after 14 years without a league victory at Anfield.
The final score is 1-0, and the standings now show Arsenal at the summit. The available match information does not give the teams’ next fixtures or a full table of points, so the scale of the advantage—and what follows in the title race—remains unclear.
