Arsenal and Liverpool created a tense great battle at the Emirates, but in the end neither side found a way into the opponent's goal.
This 0-0 draw marks the first time since August 2015 that Arsenal has not scored in a Premier League match, and also closes the 7-game winning streak of Mikel Arteta's team in all competitions.
The championship race therefore remains hot, especially when Man City has not been left too far behind. The gap between the two teams at this time is 6 points.
Considered a showdown between the number one contender and the defending champion, the match was pushed to a high tempo right from the first minutes. Arsenal entered the game confidently, with a striking attacking direction on Bukayo Saka's right flank.
The English star soon created the first dangerous opportunity when he turned into the center and forced Alisson to show off his save skills with an excellent dive.
However, that excitement almost paid a heavy price. William Saliba passed back carelessly, making David Raya confused, opening up an opportunity for Conor Bradley to finish. However, the crossbar saved the Emirates home team from conceding a goal.
Liverpool gradually stabilized the game in the first half thanks to their disciplined and physically strong play. Milos Kerkez left his mark with an excellent defense, promptly stopping Saka's shot right in the penalty area.
Stepping into the second half, the away team played more brightly. Florian Wirtz almost brought a penalty after entering the penalty area, while Dominik Szoboszlai continuously stirred up Arsenal's defense with long-range shots and creative passes.
However, the common point of both teams is the lack of sharpness in decisive moments. Arsenal had a chance to finish in injury time, but Gabriel headed wide of the post from a corner kick situation. In the opposite direction, Liverpool extended their unbeaten streak to 10 matches, continuing to consolidate their position in the top 4.
