Liverpool won 3-0 in the 30th round of the 2020/21 Premier League (PL) against Arsenal on their way to the Emirates Stadium. In addition, Liverpool succeeded in narrowing the difference to two points from Chelsea (51 points), the champions league qualifying maginot line, who suffered a 2-5 defeat in the West Brom away with 14 wins, 7 draws, 9 losses and 49 points.

In this match, Liverpool came out with a 4-3-3 formation as usual. As always, Sadio Manet and Mohamed Salah stood on the left and right, centering on Roberto Firminu, forming an attacking triangle. While Fabinho was in the defensive midfielder position and tried to protect the four backs, James Milner and Thiago Alcantara built a midfield in the form of an inverted triangle. Andrew Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold were in charge of the left and right flanks, while Ozan Kabak and Nathaniel Phillips started as central defenders. The goal was kept by goalkeeper Alisson Becker.

Liverpool starting lineup vs Arsenal

It was a game overwhelmed by Liverpool. Liverpool dominated 64 to 36 in market share, and recorded more than four times the number of shots with 16 to 3. It was Liverpool who overpowered Arsenal by 7-2 in effective shooting. In this game, Arsenal’s expected score (abbreviation for xG: Expected Goals, a statistic that calculates the expected score through shooting points and circumstances) was only 0.09 goals, so it was poor in attacking.

In particular, Thiago and Milner’s mid-won, centered on Fabinho, overwhelmed the confrontation with Arsenal mid-won. In addition, Arnold, who took a break from the England team’s list during the A match period, recovered his former performance through physical recovery, tying up match-up opponents Arsenal Ace Pierre-Emeric Obame, and at the same time aggressively attacking the opponent’s side. Destroyed. In fact, in this match, Arnold exerted a high influence over the entire karate, succeeding in intercepting three times, in addition to six crosses and four chance making, the most among the players in the game.

However, Liverpool overwhelmed the game and showed regret at the end. Milner’s mid-range shot on the 11th minute and Fabinho’s mid-range shot on the 13th minute narrowly missed the goal. On the 26th minute, Manet’s headed shot is in front of the goalkeeper. In the 30th minute, Pirmino’s medium range shot misses the target. On the 34th minute, Arnold’s cutback pass (a pass that runs behind the diagonal) followed by Milner’s non-stop shot struck the post.

Liverpool’s offensive continued in the early second half, but there was no sign of a goal. In the 16th minute of the second half, Jürgen Klopp, Liverpool coach, threw Kang-su, who took off defender Robertson and steered the attacker. Along with this, Pirminu was a central offensive midfielder with the steering standing one top in the forefront, and the formation was changed to 4-2-3-1 as Milner descended to the left flank.

Late Liverpool vs Arsenal

The steering commitment worked. As soon as he was substituted, he scored the opening goal with a header from Arnold’s delivery cross in just two minutes (the second half of the 18th minute). Liverpool gained momentum with this goal, and five minutes later (23 minutes in the second half), Salaga defeated Arsenal defender Gabriel Magalagas, who received Fabinho’s roving pass, digging between the legs of the opponent’s goalkeeper from an angleless place. Det scored the victory by adding a goal with an elaborate shot.

Liverpool returned to their 4-3-3 formation in the 33rd minute of the second half, excluding Pirminu and adding midfielder Giorgino Byinaldum. It was Liverpool with a defensive balance. Liverpool ended the game with a 3-0 win with Arnold intercepting Margal Ligague’s pass mistake and Manet’s turn to hand Salah’s pass with a non-stop shot.

Eventually, Liverpool dominated the game as a whole, but ended up winning Arsenal 3-0 thanks to the performance of the steering, who scored multiple goals in the second half. This is the first time in the history of the first division that Liverpool have scored more than three goals in their Arsenal away.

Liverpool have long had a tendency to rely on an attacking tripod leading to Pirminu, Salah and Manet. However, as they play too many games, they are suffering from a difficult condition this season and are showing severe ups and downs.

Jota, who transferred the team from Wolverhampton Wanderers to Liverpool through the transfer market this summer, quickly melted into the team by scoring five goals in the first nine PL games, but suffered a knee injury in the final match of the Champions League round of 32 against Atalanta and had to be missed for a long time. . However, returning from injuries, he is playing well again, scoring three goals in four recent PL games.

Jota is scoring the most goals after Ace Salah (18 goals) among Liverpool players despite not having a lot of appearances in 13 PL matches this season. What’s even more surprising is the fact that he is scoring four goals in the 116 minutes of his six games and one goal every 29 minutes. This is the most substitute goal for all PL players this season. Perhaps the player who will determine Liverpool’s success or failure at the end of the season is the steering wheel.
