✖︎ Arsenal vs. Liverpool Live Log ⚽️

3 November 2018 soccer️

3:11 - Arsenal is looking very active and moving the ball around well. Scary look for Liverpool so far.
8:10 - Liverpool seems to have calmed down the Arsenal attack a bit, but have still been very sloppy with the ball.
12:02 - Finaly start to get some good ball movement from Liverpool on the left side until Milner gives it away.
13:35 - Great opportunity for Arsenal from Aubameyang but luckily Gomez was able to get a foot on it.
15:20 - Great ball served into the box by Aubameyang to Mkhitaryan. Allison charged it putting enough pressure to force the header just wide. Liverpool is looking especially shaky.
17:58 - Wonderful ball from Arnold to Fermino who is able to lift it over the keeper and off the crossbar directly to Mane’s feet. Unfortunately, Mane is called offside.
21:15 - Salah had a great run down the right side but Xhaka did a great job running him down and forcing a corner.
22:15 - Salah sends a beautiful ball into van Dijk who had a great opportunity to put it in the back of the net but ends up just getting a touch straight into the keeper, Leno.
23:35 - Salah sends a cross to Roberston who sends a ball to Leno.
Salah is starting to look real crisp creating a lot of great chances for others over and over. Makes me feel better about the Rocky start Liverpool had.
25:20 - awful touch by Fabinho who sky’s it over from way outside the box.
Nobody seems to want to play much defense at all. Allison and Leno have both been very active so far in the first 30.
28:49 - Great hard tackle by Fabinho.
29:45 - Klopp does not look like a happy camper. I can’t say I blame him.
31:05 - Ozil sent a nice ball into Mkhitaryan, who had a beautiful quick touch to Aubameyang, but Aubameyang just couldn’t finish it.
32:17 - Allison forced to come outside the box to clear the ball. Arsenal still attacking hard and Liverpool still defending poorly.
Really dig the purple Liverpool kit. Think I might get myself a Fermino or Fabinho jersey.
35:26 - Arsenal continues to move the ball effectively in the midfield.
In reference to the announcers talking about Gomez, yes he has been very impressive during the last few weeks, but I don’t know if this is the time to complement the Liverpool defense.
38:28 - Another beautiful one-touch around the box from Ozil to Lacazette, who missed just wide.
39:52 - Off a free kick, Oxil sent a ball into Mustafi, who heads it to Lacazette, whose header goes to the back of the net, but luckily the play is called offside.
Both teams have had a goal taken away on very close offside calls.
I like seeing van Dijk further up on attacks. He’s been very effective with the touched he’s had.
44:36 - Speaking of van Dijk, his header off a free kick ends up just wide clipping the post.

✖︎ HALFTIME ✖︎ 0-0

49:52 - Missed the first five minutes out walking Bruce Wayne. Happy to see I didn’t miss a goal.
52:40 - Huge scramble in the Liverpool box. Lucky to get out of it unscathed.
Apparently Fabinho is “bored” at Liverpool and wants a transfer to PSG. Maybe I’ll stick with a Fermino jersey then.
55:00 - Nice recovery from Robertson to force a corner. Turns around curious at the ref. Luckily, Liverpool is able to effectively defend and clear after the corner.
56:58 - Robertson chips a ball into Fermino who is able to control it off his chest but not get a foot on it before Leno is able to sweep it up.
GOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!
61:08 - A run from Mane up the left side, he is able to get a strike on goal, forcing Leno to bat it out directly to Milner who gets a boot on it and scores

✖︎ Arsenal 0 - 1 Liverpool ✖︎

63:05 - Allison with a big save off a deep strike from Torreira
63:57 - Milner and Gomez clash heads….. Does not look pleasant.
66:05 - Milner just getting up now to step off the pitch with a bloody nose.
67:40 - First sub of the game. Arsenal puts on Iwobi for Mkhitaryan.
68:20 - Great ball from Fermino to Salah up the left side. Salahs cross is just out of Mane’s reach, for a potential chance.
69:15 - Fermino’s header off the resulting corner ends up just wide to the right.
72:26 - Second sub of the game. Arsenal puts on Ramsey for Aubameyang.
72:52 - Mane does a great job fighting for the ball sending it forward to Roberston who is able to force a corner from a cross.
73:26 - off the corner, van Dijk is able to send a header on goal once again. He continues to look good moving towards goal.
75:05 - Liverpool had been dominate through these 30 minutes in the second half.
75:38 - I spoke to soon there as Iwobi sends a beautiful ball in from the left side, but Arsenal is still unable to convert.
77:35 - Arsenal’s crosses into the box have been pretty empty this half.
77:58 - Fabinho with a nice challenge on Ozil just outside the box.

✖︎ Arsenal 1 - 1 Liverpool ✖︎

83:20 - Salah tries to curl one in from outside the box off a corner pass from Milner, but it’s way to lofty.
I’ve been really impressed with Iwobi. He’s come on strong and continues to force pressure on Liverpool.
Curious Klopp has only used one sub so far with less than four minutes to go.
87:30 - Big mistake from Arnold getting beat, giving Arsenal multiple chances to out a shot on goal. Got out lucky once again.
I’d like to see Lallana come in for Liverpool to get some additional offense from the midfield.
91:20 - Deep throw from Gomez into the box but nothing comes from it.
93:56 - Fifth sub of the game. Liverpool sends on Matip for Salah.

✖︎ FULL TIME ✖︎ Arsenal 1-1 Liverpool

Disappointed Liverpool couldn’t hang on to this one. Will most likely fall behind City after they play tomorrow.
