The Arsenal team achieved a difficult victory over Liverpool on penalties in the match between the two teams that took place Thursday night at Anfield, in the semi-final round of the English League Cup.

The match ended in a scoreless draw, despite successive attempts by players from both teams to visit the net for 90 minutes.

Both teams used penalties to settle the qualifying card, and the Gunners managed to score 5 shots in exchange for 4 successful shots from the Reds.

In this way, Arsenal will repeat their victory in the penalty shootout against Liverpool, since they had previously won the Charity Shield match last August also at the expense of the Reds.

This is the two teams’ second meeting this week, as Liverpool managed a sweeping victory over Arsenal on Monday, 3-1, in the two-team match in the third round of the English Premier League.

With this, Arsenal joins the quarterfinals of the League Cup, after 7 clubs have already reserved their seats in the next round of the tournament.

The semi-final competition concluded on Thursday night, with Brentford earning a sweeping 3-0 victory over Fulham, while Stoke City reserved their place in the quarter-finals by beating Aston Villa with an unanswered goal.

Tottenham, Manchester United, Manchester City, Everton and Newcastle have previously reserved their quarter-final seats for the past two days.
