JAKARTA - Mikel Arteta managed to lead Arsenal to kick Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool in the last 16 of the Premier League Cup. The Gunners won 5-4 on penalties in the last 16 match at Anfield Stadium, Thursday local time.

The result also made Arsenal complete the revans over two moments, namely a 1-3 defeat in the English Premier League three days ago, and being eliminated from the last 16 of the League Cup last season also on penalties with a similar score.

Arsenal goalkeeper, Bernd Leno, did a lot to force the score on the glasses without change for 90 minutes. He made no less than six saves throughout the match.

Then in the penalty shootout, Leno also succeeded in thwarting Divock Origi and Harry Wilson's kicks, before Joe Willock as Arsenal's last executioner confirmed the continuation of the Gunners' steps, as reported by Antara.

In the quarter-finals he will challenge his former mentor, Pep Guardiola. Despite being a student, Arteta is not necessarily in an inferior position in the meeting notes against Guardiola since he handled Arsenal on December 20, 2019.

Guardiola won the first encounter with a convincing score of 3-0 for Manchester City in Matchday 29, but Arteta's Arsenal managed to deliver the Citizens' first ever domestic cup defeat since 2018. Arsenal beat Manchester 2-0 in the FA Cup semi-finals.

More than that, Guardiola seemed to be a stepping stone for Arteta's success in winning the trophy with Arsenal in his seven-month tenor, of course three months without matches because football was disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Of course, the third meeting between Arteta and Guardiola is worth waiting for when it takes place on mid-21 December 2020.

What's more, Arteta will first lead Arsenal to visit the Etihad to challenge Manchester City in a series of Premier League matchday matches on 17 October.
