Mikel Arteta has revealed that Jurgen Klopp congratulated the Spaniard after Arsenal beat Liverpool on Sunday. The two were spotted having a conversation following the game but Arteta has confirmed that there was no malice in any messages.
An early opening goal from Gabriel Martinelli and two goals from Bukayo Saka was enough to secure a 3-2 win for the Gunners who secured their eighth victory in nine games. Martinelli opened the scoring in just 58 seconds. Liverpool levelled proceedings through Darwin Nunez after 34 minutes but Saka restored the Arsenal lead on the stroke of half-time.
Liverpool levelled again on 53 minutes as Roberto Firmino scored his 10th goal against the Gunners in just 17 appearances. Arsenal were awarded a penalty 15 minutes from time thanks to a challenge from Thiago Alcantara on Gabriel Jesus.
