It was a frustrating night for Arsenal as they came up just shy of a spot in the Carabao Cup Final.
Liverpool were without Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane but outclassed Mikel Arteta's men at the Emirates as they secured a 2-0 win thanks to a brace from Diogo Jota.
The Gunners had issues of their own with injuries, players at AFCON and Covid cases that postponed the north London derby at the weekend, but there was a belief they could get the better of Jurgen Klopp's men after an impressive 0-0 draw at Anfield when they played the majority of the game with ten men.
