Bukayo Saka showcased his prowess in Arsenal's 3-1 triumph over Liverpool, playing a pivotal role in their victory before being substituted due to injury. The talented England international opened the scoring for the Gunners just 14 minutes into the game, capitalizing on Kai Havertz's rebound.
However, Liverpool managed to level the score through a defensive lapse, as Gabriel Magalhaes inadvertently directed the ball into his own net. Despite this setback, Arsenal exploited further defensive errors, with Gabriel Martinelli seizing an opportunity after a collision between Alisson and Virgil van Dijk, slotting the ball into an unguarded net.
The decisive moment arrived deep into added time when Leandro Trossard secured the victory with a remarkable run and finish.
Injury Update
Following Saka's substitution, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta provided reassurance regarding the extent of the injury, indicating that it is not a cause for long-term concern. Arteta stated, "He should be fine. He got a kick on the ankle or the back of his foot, he should be fine."
Saka's Response
In the aftermath of the match, Saka took to social media platform Instagram to express his delight over the victory. Posting a picture of himself in front of jubilant Arsenal fans, he captioned it with, "It takes all of us! Enjoy that one Gunners, we keep going [salute emoji, red heart emoji]." Saka's positive outlook reflects his determination to continue contributing to Arsenal's success despite the setback.
