Arne Slot praises Szoboszlai's game-changing goal in Liverpool's victory against Arsenal.

Liverpool manager Arne Slot praised Dominik Szoboszlai's crucial goal that led to a late victory over Arsenal at Anfield. Szoboszlai scored a remarkable free-kick from 30 yards out, securing a win for Liverpool, who maintain a perfect record in the new season with three wins out of three matches.

The victory showcased Liverpool's determination, especially as they are pursuing Newcastle striker Alexander Isak with a £120m bid on transfer deadline day. This strong start suggests Liverpool will be a formidable team this season.

Arsenal, despite playing well, fell short due to manager Mikel Arteta's conservative team selection. Missing key players like Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka, Arsenal faced further setbacks when defender William Saliba got injured early in the match.

Slot commended Szoboszlai's performance, highlighting his adaptability and contribution to the team. Liverpool's record signing Florian Wirtz also faced injury but Slot clarified it was due to cramp. Arteta defended Arsenal's approach, stating they aimed to win but Liverpool's strong performance shifted the game in their favor.
