Hello good evening to everyone here, I'm very excited to be back once again after that long break. For the love of the game of football can't forever be hidden, Even though I'm absent but that has not kept me from watching football.
Chelsea having qualified to play this year's carabao cup at Wembley, They were still waiting for the winner between Liverpool and Arsenal. Unfortunately, they were to play the first league last week but couldn't come on.
It was rather played today and the intensity in the match was just awesome. Both teams really played like a world cup final.

Liverpool for the very first time were missing the likes of Salah, Sadio Mane, Keita and Konate. Football fans like me was waiting patiently how the likes of Minamino, Firmino and Jota will react with these players absence.
Arsenal Too were missing Partey in midfield, well early as 24th Minutes, Xhaka received his marching orders for a silly tackle.

Playing with 10 men against Liverpool was always going to be difficult for Arsenal and everyone thought it was going to be a disastrous night for the gunners but credit goes to Arteta for having another idea to stop Liverpool from scoring.

The match ended 0-0 and will be decided next week at The Emirates Stadium. The gunners now looks favorite to win the encounter that is for now..
Arteta has realy transformed Arsenal these days, They now look a little sharper compare to some few season ago. Even though they were down by a Man, but you could barely see the impact it had on their team. Everyone was equal to the task and played well as a team. They defended so well. They were even looking more threatening than Liverpool. Saka was doing so well and it was rather unfortunate he has to be substituted for a minor illness. I hope to see him back over the weekend against Tottenham in the London Derby.
