Arsenal’s league opener ended in a 4-3 defeat against Liverpool, which did not go down well with the Gunners goalkeeper Petr Cech – leaving him disheartened and distracted.

Philippe Coutinho’s brace helped the Reds to clinch their second win in 14 appearances at the Emirates.

Gaining confidence from Coutinho’s equaliser, Liverpool began a goal scoring rout as they scored three back to back to goals within a span of 18 minutes after the break.

However the tragedy didn’t end there for Petr Cech as he smashed his £65,000 luxury Audi A7 into a pillar while he was leaving the parking lot at the Emirates.

Before the collision, Petr Cech in an interview told Sky Sports: “We had a great start to the game.”

“We were organised and controlled the game. It was disappointing to miss the penalty but the reaction of the team was great because we broke through.”

“In the second half, the momentum changed because of the free-kick.”

“Liverpool came out with more ambition and were very aggressive. We were punished by the Lallana goal and once we fell behind we opened the game too quickly and allowed them three, four, five counter-attacks.”
