Arsenal 1-0 Liverpool: Diaby header hero
[GALLO/GETTY]
Abou Diaby was the hero at the Emirates Stadium when his 72nd minute header revived Arsenal's hopes of playing a major role in the English Premier League title race with a 1-0 victory over rivals Liverpool.
Arsene Wenger's side had collected just one point from their previous three games but their crucial home win ensured they maintained the pressure on Chelsea and Manchester United who both missed out on vital points.
"We believe in our title chances and you could see that Chelsea again lost tonight and Manchester United dropped points, it is still open,'' Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said.
"I don't see any mathematical reason why we shouldn't believe.''
Arsenal created the better first half opportunities and should have been ahead after just seven minutes when the unmarked William Gallas headed over from Fabregas's free-kick.
Fabregas burst forward to collect a neat back heel from Nicklas Bendtner and was brought down by Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel on the edge of the visitors' box.
The free-kick was wasted, but the move appeared to show Arsenal the way through the Reds back-line.
In the second half Andrey Arshavin served early notice of Arsenal's more positive approach when he fired a firm shot into the side netting from a tight angle.
Liverpool responded in kind, carving out a good chance for the advancing Lucas that ended with the young Brazilian mirroring Bendtner's miss of the first half.
Moments later Gallas produced an outstanding last-ditch tackle to deny David Ngog who had been sent clear from the halfway line by Steven Gerrard's pass and the balance of the clash appeared to have shifted in the visitors' favour.
Arsenal then dominated the crucial period of the game that culminated in Diaby's goal.
Tomas Rosicky should have done much better when he found himself bearing down on Liverpool keeper Pepe Reina and Bendtner was unlucky to see Daniel Agger hack his goalbound shot to safety.
Bendtner played the ball wide to Rosicky who delivered the perfect cross for Diaby to head home from six yards out.
