Mohamed Salah scored in the 81st minute to rescue a 2-2 draw for Liverpool against Arsenal in a pulsating Premier League encounter at the Emirates.

Bukayo Saka, absent from Arsenal’s last two games with a hamstring injury, scored the opener after just nine minutes before Virgil van Dijk hauled Liverpool level.

Mikel Merino then restored his side’s lead only for Salah to convert Darwin Nunez’s cross to deny the home side a win.

The thrilling draw leaves Liverpool second, a point behind table-toppers Manchester City, with Arsenal third, now five points off the pace.
