Three positives and two negatives from Arsenal’s historic win at Anfield

Arsenal secured a historic 1-0 Premier League victory against Liverpool at Anfield, moving three points clear at the top of the table. Kai Havertz scored the decisive goal to end Arsenal's 14-year winless league run at the stadium. Manager Mikel Arteta earned his first-ever win at Anfield as the Gunners delivered a resilient performance to bounce back from recent struggles.

Writer Kenneth Daly highlights Havertz's finishing, Arsenal's strong second-half defensive display, and the ended Anfield drought as the major positives. However, Daly notes concerns over Arsenal surrendering prolonged possession under intense first-half Liverpool pressure, as well as risky conduct from Jurrien Timber and Noni Madueke that almost resulted in costly penalties or disciplinary action.
