Liverpool 1-2 Arsenal: Denilson attempts to get past the challenge of Yossi Benayoun as the Gunners look for an early opening at Anfield
It is the hosts, however, who make the brighter start with Fernando Torres missing a great chance and Steven Gerrard having a strong penalty appeal turned down by referee Howard Webb
Alex Song tries to pick a way through Liverpool's midfield but they let little through as Arsenal manage only one shot on target during the first half
Rafael Benitez's side continue to apply pressure and get the opening goal in the 41st minute when the Gunners fail to clear a free-kick and Dirk Kuyt (right) punishes them
Trailing at the interval, Arsene Wenger's half-time team talk produces almost instant results when Samir Nasri's low cross finds its way to Glen Johnson (right) who puts it into his own net to make it 1-1
By the 58th minute Arsenal have the lead thanks to a sensational finish from Andrey Arshavin who beats goalkeeper Pepe Reina with an unstoppable shot that goes in off the post
Liverpool's �20m summer signing Alberto Aquilani replaces Javier Mascherano but ultimately makes little impact as Arsenal have more possession and outshoot their opponents on their way to victory
The result sees Benitez's side stay in seventh five points off a Champions League place, whilst Wenger's team climb above Aston Villa into third
