Liverpool were down 1-0 within the first 10 minutes, but Virgil van Dijk’s header leveled the score in the 18th minute.
Arsenal regained the lead just before half-time when Mikel Merino headed home Declan Rice’s free-kick, and the Gunners remained in the lead going into half-time.
Liverpool looked even more solid in the second half, with Darwin Nunez providing the assist for Mohamed Salah’s equalizer in the 81st minute, sealing the Reds’ points.
Given Liverpool’s injury crisis, Arne Slott will soon be out of options at forward.
The Reds currently only have Darwin Nunez as an out-and-out No. 9, with Diogo Jota’s return uncertain and Slott unable to reveal the Portuguese international’s exact time of return.
This means there is room in the first-team squad for another forward, and ‘special’ talent nearing a return could get their chance straight away.
And after Dans returned in the lead-up to the match, with plans to initially train with the Under-21s, Liverpool reporter David Lynch revealed that the young forward would also be promoted to the club’s first team.

Rafa Benitez has noticed real changes at Liverpool
Former Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez has shared his thoughts on how well Liverpool have adapted to life under Arne Slott.
Slott became the first head coach in club history to win 11 of his first 12 games. He is also the first Liverpool manager to win all six games in a season.
It’s no secret that Slott had the big job of succeeding Jurgen Klopp, who in 2019 became the first manager to return Champions League glory to Anfield since Benitez 14 years ago. It is.
In his contribution to BBC Sport, Benitez spoke about how impressed he has been with the Reds so far, without changing too much right away. “It remains to be seen how the Liverpool team will react to adversity under Slott, but I’ve been impressed with what I’ve seen so far,” said the 64-year-old.
