Reds too strong for Gunners

20 August 2011 15:00

Liverpool recorded their first win over Arsenal since 2000 to heap more misery on the Gunners, who saw Emmanuel Frimpong sent off and lost centre-back Laurent Koscielny in a 2-0 defeat at Emirates Stadium.

Samir Nasri impressed for the Gunners, despite being on the verge of a £22million move to Manchester City, but Arsenal's luck was out after Aaron Ramsey's own goal and a late strike from substitute Luis Suarez handed the visitors victory.

Liverpool had the better chances, as Andy Carroll's first-half header was well saved by Wojciech Szczesny.
