EPL Wrap: Liverpool end Manchester City's unbeaten run, Bournemouth shock Arsenal

  • 15/01/2018

Liverpool brought Manchester City's unbeaten domestic run crashing to an end with a thrilling 4-3 victory at Anfield.

Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah all found the back of the net in the second half to set up the win.

Meanwhile, Arsenal have lost further ground on the Premier League's top four after struggling Bournemouth came from behind to beat Arsene Wenger's side 2-1 on Sunday.   

After Hector Bellerin fired through Asmir Begovic to open the scoring for the Gunners early in the second half, Callum Wilson and Jordon Ibe scored within five second-half minutes to turn the game on its head.   

Wilson converted Ryan Fraser's teasing cross to restore parity in the 70th minute before Ibe fired home a second having been teed up by the scorer of Bournemouth's first.

Alexis Sanchez, heavily linked with an exit from the Emirates, was left out of Arsenal's squad with manager Arsene Wenger saying before the game that a decision on his future was "imminent".   

Having won just one of their last five Premier League matches, Arsenal remain sixth with 39 points - five behind rivals Tottenham Hotspur in fifth. Bournemouth, meanwhile, climb to 13th but remain just four points above the bottom three.
