Kai Havertz made Premier League history in the perfect setting, scoring Arsenal’s winning goal at Anfield while becoming the highest-scoring German player the competition has ever seen.
14-year wait for a Premier League win at Anfield. More significantly on a personal level, the goal took Havertz to 46 Premier League strikes, moving him clear of former Manchester City midfielder İlkay Gündoğan.
Havertz’s simple back-post finish made history, with Declan Rice providing the decisive delivery. Opta confirmed that Havertz is now the Premier League’s all-time leading German goalscorer with 46 goals, surpassing Gündoğan’s previous record of 45.
