Szoboszlai stunner secures Liverpool win over Arsenal

Bangla Press Desk: Dominik Szoboszlai curled home a brilliant long-range free kick to earn Liverpool a 1-0 win over Arsenal in an early-season meeting between two of the likely Premier League title contenders on Sunday. Manchester City was also expected to be challenging for the championship this season but collapsing to a 2-1 loss at Brighton — for a second straight loss — was another sign that Pep Guardiola’s team has lost its aura of dominance. Little separated Liverpool and Arsenal at Anfield before Szoboszlai stepped up to an 83rd-minute free kick and whipped it into the top corner from about 30 yards (meters). Filling in at full back in an emergency, the Hungary captain — typically an attacking midfielder — did his best impression of now-departed right back Trent Alexander with a top-quality strike that was out of keeping with the rest of the game.

It’s now three straight wins to open the season for Liverpool, the defending champion. For Arsenal, it was a first loss and first goal conceded — extending its winless record at Anfield dating back to 2012.This article was originally published on Daily Sun.
