The Gunners had numerous chances to open the scoring but it was Liverpool who did just that late on in the second-half.
Trent Alexander-Arnold’s corner was whipped in and went into the back of the net off Arsenal defender Jakub Kiwior.
It sparked jubilant scenes from the travelling Liverpool fans behind the goal, with one supporter in particular getting amongst it.
During the celebrations, a fan managed to get onto the pitch and join in with the players.
At first they hugged Alexander-Arnold and Luis Diaz before their fellow teammates formed a huge huddle.
Nunez was on top of it all and started to smack the head of the fan, doing so numerous times before pumping his fist into the air.
Konate then did the same, smacking the supporter’s head before taking his beanie off and throwing it into the away end.
It’s clear that the Liverpool players were ecstatic to have scored, and it got even better deep into stoppage-time.
