Reason why Oleksandr Zinchenko burst into tears on Arsenal bench during Liverpool clash

Arsenal left-back Oleksandr Zinchenko was filmed looking distraught on the bench during the Gunners' 2-2 draw with Liverpool on Sunday and at one stage appeared to be in tears.

It was a thrilling encounter between the two teams, with Mikel Arteta's men racing into a 2-0 lead inside the opening 30 minutes before slowly but surely, Liverpool started to gain a foothold on the tie. Mohamed Salah started the comeback with a goal on the cusp of half-time before Roberto Firmino bagged a late equaliser to break Arsenal hearts.

Had the Gunners held their nerve, they would have been in a fantastic position when it comes to the title race. Instead, their advantage at the top was cut to just six points, as well as having played one game more than nearest challengers Manchester City.
