From the source

Kai Havertz's strike in the first-half was enough for Arsenal to defeat Liverpool 1-0 and seal their first win at Anfield in 14 years. With his sights set on bouncing back from Tuesday's humiliation at Fleetwood Town, Mikel Arteta reverted to full strength for the visit to Anfield.

Christos Tzolis returned from his injury to make the starting lineup while Martin Ødegaard, Riccardo Calafiori and David Raya also came back in. The Gunners started the game well, dominating the midfield, and it paid off when they broke the deadlock after just 15 minutes. Ødegaard pressured the Liverpool backline to win back possession and play it to Noni Madueke.

Declan Rice offered the winger support on the overlap and sent a low cross in for Kai Havertz to fire in at the back post.
