Arne Slot’s revamped Liverpool team defeated Arsenal 2-1 in Philadelphia with goals from Mohamed Salah and Fabio Carvalho. Salah opened the scoring in the 13th minute, and Carvalho extended Liverpool’s lead in the 34th minute, showcasing some impressive team play. Arsenal’s Kai Havertz scored a close-range goal in the 40th minute, making for an exciting first half.
The second half saw both teams make substitutions, leading to a decrease in the match’s tempo. The game took place at Lincoln Financial Field where a crowd of 69,679 set a record for a football match at the venue. Liverpool will wrap up their US pre-season tour with a final fixture against Manchester United in Columbia on Saturday. Arsenal will return home after their US tour.
They will compete in a friendly tournament against Bayer Leverkusen and Lyon at the Emirates Stadium. Harvey Elliott, a Liverpool player seeking to establish himself, shone in the match against Arsenal. Elliott, who had a standout performance, provided two key assists but missed out on a hat-trick of assists due to a missed chance by Diogo Jota.
Arne Slot’s new tactical approach seems to suit Elliott well and the young midfielder is eager to solidify his position. Slot praised Elliott’s contributions but noted areas for improvement. Arsenal struggled with their finishing, missing several key opportunities early on and later failing to capitalize on chances to equalize. Manager Mikel Arteta acknowledged the need for improvement in their ability to convert chances into goals.
Slot’s Liverpool has shown a more fluid, risk-taking style compared to Jurgen Klopp’s previous approach. Despite some mistakes, Liverpool’s new strategy contrasts with Arsenal’s robust performance which Arteta aims to evolve with recent signings like Riccardo Calafiori.
