Rice brings energy, Alisson costs hosts – Liverpool and Arsenal player ratings

How Liverpool and Arsenal's players rated in their Premier League match at Anfield, as the champions of the past two seasons went head to head. Kai Havertz scored after an error from Alisson, the Liverpool goalkeeper Kai Havertz's first-half goal made the difference as Arsenal won at Anfield in the Premier League for the first time since 2012. Here's how we rated the Liverpool and Arsenal players, and your scores are below. Alisson: It was his error – a poor pass out – that led to Havertz giving Arsenal the lead. Made a great save to deny Christos Tzolis but that mistake ultimately proved costly. 4 Ronald Araujo: Made his 12th consecutive start.
Battled well as ever but was given a really tough test by Tzolis down Arsenal's left. 6 Jeremy Jacquet: Shaky in patches but had a decent game on the whole and made a superb tackle after slipping in the second half. 6 Virgil van Dijk: Reliable as ever but will be so disappointed with how easily Liverpool gifted Arsenal the lead. 6 Milos Kerkez: Had a frustrating first half but delivered a lovely cross which Alexis Mac Allister should have headed in. 5 Trey Nyoni: A real show of faith from Andoni Iraola to give the 19-year-old his first Premier League start. Looked a bit nervy early
