London, January 8 (NA) – Arsenal drew 0-0 with Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium in the 21st round of the Premier League. Despite the draw, Arsenal maintained their lead at the top of the English championship, capitalizing on the shared points to stay at the summit and reaffirm their protagonism in the season. The team managed by Mikel Arteta once again showed collective solidity and a marked identity of play, sustaining their regularity even against one of the tournament's most demanding rivals.
From the start, the match was set up as a tactical and strategic duel. Liverpool, now under the guidance of Arne Slot, opted for a compact block, organized pressing, and direct attacks, trying to take advantage of the speed of its forwards in quick transitions. During the first half, clear chances were scarce due to the defensive intensity of both teams.
Arteta made changes from the bench looking for more offensive freshness, while Arne Slot reinforced the midfield to maintain balance and secure a valuable point as a visitor. However, the lack of efficiency and good defensive responses kept the zero on both scoreboards. As the minutes passed, physical fatigue began to be felt, and the match entered a period of maximum tension, where any error could be decisive.
