Video: Van Dijk caught on his heels as Saka slams Arsenal ahead

Posted by

Bukayo Saka’s goal for Arsenal to give them a 1-0 lead against Liverpool owed much to Kai Havertz.

The German burst forward into space, only to see his shot saved by Alisson Becker.

Fortunately for the Gunners, the Brazilian could only parry it, and with Virgil van Dijk caught on his heels, Saka was alive to the possibilities and made no mistake as he slammed home to set the Emirates Stadium alight.
