On Sunday, Liverpool faced Arsenal in a thrilling encounter where the Reds came from behind twice to salvage a 2-2 draw. Mohamed Salah's goal in the 81st minute allowed Liverpool to claim a point against an Arsenal side struggling with injuries. Arsenal initially took the lead through Bukayo Saka in the ninth minute, and after Virgil van Dijk equalized, Spain's Mikel Merino put the Gunners ahead again in the first half. However, Salah clinched the draw after seamlessly converting a well-placed pass from Darwin Núñez, showcasing his consistent scoring against Arsenal over eight seasons. Following this match, Liverpool found itself in second place, just behind Manchester City, who had a victorious day against Southampton.

Arsenal's troubles were compounded by injuries to key players, including captain Martin Odegaard and left back Riccardo Calafiori, as well as the suspension of defender William Saliba. The situation worsened when two more defenders, Gabriel and Jurrien Timber, left the pitch due to injuries, forcing manager Mikel Arteta to improvise with a makeshift defense. Liverpool capitalized on this defensive chaos, ultimately sharing the spoils in a match where they had dropped points for only the second time this season.

In another remarkable fixture, Manchester United suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat to West Ham after a series of missed opportunities, causing manager Erik Ten Hag frustration. United initially fell behind to a Crysencio Summerville goal but equalized through Casemiro, only to lose following a controversial late penalty decision. This new setback left the club struggling in 14th place, intensifying the pressure on Ten Hag amid ongoing performance issues.

Chelsea celebrated a 2-1 win against Newcastle, spearheaded by the impressive Cole Palmer, who provided a curling assist and later scored himself. His contributions have solidified his status as one of the league's most valuable players this season, leading in goal involvements. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace achieved their first league win of the season under manager Oliver Glasner, edging Tottenham 1-0 thanks to a goal from Jean-Philippe Mateta, showcasing resilience amidst a challenging start to the campaign.

Lastly, Barcelona delighted their fans with a dominant 4-0 victory over Real Madrid in Kylian Mbappé's first clasico experience. Robert Lewandowski's two goals and contributions from Lamine Yamal and Raphinha highlighted Barcelona's attacking prowess, as they celebrated a resounding win at Santiago Bernabéu, leaving a strong impression in the La Liga landscape.
