Liverpool 1 Arsenal 0(Luis Garcia)
This match was no less than a 6 pointer. 3rd place in the premiership met 5th place,as Liverpool took on Arsenal at Anfiled. Liverpool had scored only 31 goals before last night's game and Arsenal had scored only 9 goals away from home. So these stats combined us to let us know,that we weren't going to get a high scoring game.
Robbie Fowler made his home debut for Liverpool,as Rafa Benitez made only one change in the team,as he replaced German Didi Hamann with Momo Sissoko. Arsenal threw Kolo Toure and Ebouye straight back into the team after a long injury lay off.
Liverpool made the stronger start,but it was Arsenal who had the first major chance of the game,but Toure wasn't able to direct his header goalwards. After this it was all Liverpool,as they created chance after chance,but just weren't able to find the back of the net. It all started with a dodgy clearence by Phillipe Senderos,who turned 21 on the day of the match. Jens Lehmann made an outstanding save to turn the ball over for a corner. Liverpool kept on pressurising a weakend Arsenal. The pressure seemed to have paid off when, Morientes was fouled by Ebouye in the penalty box.Steven Gerrard stepped up to take it,but Lehmann denied Liverpool once more with a strong save. Some would say justice was done as the penalty decision was a little harsh. Gerrard was involved straight after the penalty miss as he tried to set up Fernando Morientes with a brillaint cross,but the Spaniard missed his kick. Morientes was also setup brillaintly by Robbie Fowler's cross,but he wasn't able to place his header well enough. Both teams went into the half time interval scoreless.
Liverpool started the second half in the same fashion,attacking but not being able to score. Gerrard's throughball was met excellenty by Robbie Fowler and after controlling the ball well and making good contact,the shot looked destined to be Fowler's 1st goal after his comeback for Liverpool,but an outstreched arm by Jens Lehmann denied Fowler the glory moment. Liverpool kept pressurising the Arsenal defence.Didi Hamann replaced Xabi Alonso. Cisse replaced Fowler,n Garcia replaced Sissoko. This move worked for Rafa as Hamann hit a brilliant shot from outside the box,which was saved brilliantly by Lehmann,but Garcia pounced on the rebound n score Liverpool the vital late winner.
