Premier League leaders Liverpool wanted Trent Alexander-Arnold’s second-half equaliser to safe a 2-2 draw at Aston Villa on Wednesday that lifted them eight factors clear on the prime.
Liverpool started strongly and led by means of Mohamed Salah’s Twenty eighth-minute opener, however Villa turned the sport on its head earlier than halftime with objectives by Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins.
Diogo Jota struck the crossbar for Liverpool after the break earlier than Alexander-Arnold’s deflected shot levelled it up.
Substitute Darwin Nunez missed a wonderful likelihood to revive Liverpool’s lead and Villa nearly nicked it in stoppage time with Donyell Malen’s shot shaving the put up.
Whereas it was hardly a harmful outcome for Arne Slot’s aspect, who stay in charge of the title race, it should give chasing Arsenal some coronary heart as they now have a sport in hand.
