England’s master FC Liverpool won the top game of Premier League against challenger FC Arsenal thanks to a dream goal. Dominik Szoboszlai converted a free kick from around 25 meters directly into the winning goal for the hosts in the 83rd minute of the otherwise less intoxicating game. New signing Florian Wirtz, however, limped from the field before the final whistle.
Liverpool thus achieved the third victory in the third league game of the season, the Reds remain the leader. Both teams on the offensive did not bring much for a long time. National player Wirtz, too, was again able to give the game of the Liverpoole only a few impulses. Shortly before the end, the record shopping with a thigh injury hobbled from the field and had to be replaced.
Trainer Arne Slot gave the all -clear afterwards. “It was not a injury, it was a welcome to the Premier League! After 85 minutes, he didn’t know that he could have cramps in so many different places, and that was exactly what happened,” said the Dutch. According to the slot, Wirtz has not yet exploited his full performance potential and an adaptation process to the Premier League is normal. A hit by Hugo Ekitiké was revoked due to an offside position of newcomer (60th). In the end, the stroke of genius of Szoboszlai decided.
Premier League: Next bankruptcy for Manchester City
Another disappointment had to accept coache icon Pep Guardiola with Manchester City. In Brighton, the guests determined the game for a long time and thanks to Erling Haaland deservedly in the lead in the 34th minute. For the Norwegian it was the 88th goal in the 100th Premier League game. But James Milner equalized for the home side by penalty (67th) before the German U21 international Brajan Gruda even shot Brighton to victory shortly before the end. For City it was the second bankruptcy in the third game of the season.
