Arsenal proved too strong for Liverpool as they beat the Reds in an absorbing Carling Cup fourth round tie.
Fran Merida thundered in an 18-yard shot to put Arsenal ahead.
Emiliano Insua equalised with a superb 25-yard dipping strike but Nicklas Bendtner shot into the roof of the net for what proved to be the winner.
Alberto Aquilani impressed after coming on for his Liverpool debut and felt he should have had a penalty when Philippe Senderos blocked his overhead shot.
Referee Alan Wiley waved away the Italian’s appeals for a Senderos handball but, after the long wait to see the £20m summer arrival, he showed some nice touches and energy in a 15-minute cameo appearance as his side pushed for an equaliser in the closing stages
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger:
“Overall it was a game of top quality with two teams who really went for it, played at a high pace.
“We gave people what they paid for – top quality. The experienced players played well, so did the young players.
“Liverpool came back to 1-1, and we still managed to win, that shows we have also mental resources.”

I visited this match on 28th October 2009 along with my friend on white limo which is arranged by my Indian friend Tej Randeva. It was a great experience for me to see football match live in London
