Arsenal missed a golden opportunity to establish an eight-point lead at the top of the Premier League table after being held to a frustrating 0-0 draw by Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday night. With Manchester City continuing their relentless chase, Mikel Arteta’s side were left to rue another night where fine margins worked against them.

The Gunners came into the clash knowing that a win would have significantly strengthened their title credentials, especially with City already showing signs of dropping points in recent weeks. However, despite dominating large spells of possession and creating a handful of decent openings, Arsenal failed to find a breakthrough against a resilient Liverpool defence.

Liverpool, themselves in the thick of the title conversation, defended with discipline and looked dangerous on the counter-attack. Both sides had chances to snatch all three points late in the game, but goalkeepers David Raya and Alisson Becker ensured the spoils were shared, leaving fans with a tense but goalless contest.

This result summed up the unpredictable nature of the Premier League over the last three weeks. The title race has taken several twists, with Arsenal, Manchester City, and Liverpool all dropping crucial points at different stages.
