Dominik Szoboszlai Fires Liverpool Past Arsenal to Top Premier League Table
Liverpool edged Arsenal 1-0 in a high-stakes Premier League showdown at Anfield, taking command at the top of the 2025/26 table with a third consecutive victory.
In a tightly contested affair, it was Dominik Szoboszlai who delivered the decisive moment of magic. The Hungarian midfielder stepped up in the 83rd minute to take a free-kick and curled an unstoppable effort into the right corner, leaving Arsenal goalkeeper with no chance.
The goal was worthy of winning any match — and it ensured Liverpool remain the only team with a perfect record after three games this season.
