Arsenal prevailed against 10-man Liverpool to blow the title race wide open.

Bukayo Saka gave Arsenal the lead before a bizarre own goal from Gabriel after an Arsenal defensive mistake made it 1-1.

An even worse mistake gave Arsenal all three points, as Gabriel Martinelli finished off after Alisson and Virgil van Dijk got themselves into a heck of a mess. Late on, Leandro Trossard made it 3-1 as he smashed home from a tight angle on the counter to rub further salt into Liverpool’s wounds.

Below are the Arsenal vs. Liverpool player ratings in full, with marks out of 10 and analysis on each player.

Alisson: 4 Usually so calm, but Alisson and Van Dijk got in a heck of a mess on Arsenal’s second goal. Klopp couldn’t believe it, and Alisson should have lumped the ball clear on that goal, and he was nutmegged on Arsenal’s third to cap a bad day at the office.

Trent Alexander-Arnold: 5—Martinelli gave him a rough outing. A few decent crosses in, but Liverpool took him off to try and keep their point. Perhaps that backfired?

Ibrahima Konate: 5: Dragged all over the place by Havertz and badly out of position on Arsenal’s opening goal. He and Van Dijk weren’t on the same page. Sent off late on for two yellows.

Virgil van Dijk: 4: Played his part in Alisson’s big error, as he shouldn’t have let the ball over the top drop for Martinelli’s goal. He was caught playing too high on Arsenal’s opener, and his deflection for Arsenal’s third summed up a tough day.

Joe Gomez: 5: Did okay at left back and right back after being booked early, but a tough assignment against this Arsenal attack.

Ryan Gravenberch: 5: Couldn’t have any impact on the game as Arsenal pressed high in the first half. Nice ball to Diaz for their goal. Subbed off early in the second.

Alexis Mac Allister: 6: Had a few efforts from a distance, which flew just wide. He did his best to keep Liverpool going.

Curtis Jones: 5—Struggled to make an impact on the game other than one shot he flashed just wide in the second half.

Cody Gakpo: 5: Could have finished a cross into the box in the first half but didn’t get into the game and subbed off early in the second.

Diogo Jota: 5—not his usual lively self. I worked hard but missed that bit of zip in the final third.

Luis Diaz: 7: Forced Liverpool’s goal through determination and always a threat on the counter.
