Liverpool labored to a 2-1 win against Wolves at Anfield on Saturday, as Florian Wirtz bagged his first goal for Liverpool and it turned out to be the winner. Ryan Gravenberch gave Liverpool a deserved lead just before half time and just over a minute later Wirtz made it 2-0 amid huge celebrations at Anfield.

Liverpool beat Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 at Anfield on Saturday in the Premier League, with Florian Wirtz scoring his first goal for the Reds.

The drought was almost over when he appeared to score an equaliser against Sunderland earlier this month, but it was ultimately awarded as an own-goal. Now, it is officially over as Wirtz got himself on the scoresheet in the first-half of Liverpool's Premier League clash with Wolves.

Arsenal resisted a late fightback from Brighton to keep hold of first place in the Premier League, but Manchester City and Aston Villa are in hot pursuit.

Richarlison replaces Kolo Muani. Odobert and Palhinha replace Bergvall and Gray. It's 2-0. Ekitike rises above Romero to head in Frimpong's deflected looping cross. Romero did appear to be pushed in the air but nothing given. Randal Kolo Muani hits a deflected shot on to the crossbar.

Arsenal were not particularly convincing against Everton during their win over the weekend, but a former Liverpool player has come to their defense.

Arsenal also needed an own goal and a spectacular save by keeper David Raya to preserve their lead as the halfway point in the Premier League season looms. The London side have 42 points from 18 games with City on 40.
