Arsenal staged an impressive comeback to draw 2-2 at Liverpool’s Anfield on May 11, 2025, following a guard of honour for the Premier League champions. Liverpool surged to an early 2-0 lead with goals from Cody Gakpo and Luis Díaz within just 90 seconds early in the first half. Despite the quick deficit, Arsenal responded after halftime with a header from Gabriel Martinelli. Mikel Merino then scored the equalizer in the 70th minute by heading in a rebound, ensuring Arsenal salvaged a point despite playing with 10 men after Merino was sent off in the 79th minute for a lunging tackle on Dominik Szoboszlai.
The match was notable for Liverpool’s domination in the opening half, but Arsenal’s resilience kept them competitive despite having been knocked out of the Champions League semi-finals earlier in the week. Liverpool had already secured their record-equalling 20th English league title prior to this fixture and ended the match with 83 points from 36 games, while Arsenal stood second with 68 points. Arsenal, however, was still battling to secure a top-five finish to guarantee Champions League football next season.
The closing moments were tense, with Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard sending a shot just wide in stoppage time. The result highlighted Arsenal’s determination and showed why they were Liverpool's only real challengers during Liverpool's dominant season. The 2-2 draw underscored both teams’ contrasting situations—Liverpool as champions wrapping up a successful season, and Arsenal fighting to consolidate their place among the European elite next term.
