Half time: Arsenal lead 1-0 despite Liverpool enjoying the greater share of territory. Havertz struck early, finishing left-footed from the six-yard box after Rice picked him out with a cross, and that's proved enough to see the visitors in front at the break. Liverpool have responded with plenty of pressure, edging the shot count 8-5 and winning six corners to Arsenal's one, but David Raya hasn't been seriously troubled, with the hosts still yet to register a shot on target. Barcola was booked for a foul right at the end of the half as Liverpool pushed for an equaliser, and two minutes of stoppage time couldn't produce a leveller before the whistle.
