Arsenal almost made the breakthrough after 68 minutes when Andrey Arshavin found Van Persie in the area but Reina stuck out a leg to make a vital save.
Arsene Wenger side were reduced to 10 men after Emmanuel Frimpong was shown a second yellow card when he left his foot up in a fifty-fifty with Lucas.

Miguel’s attempted clearance hit Aaron Ramsey in the face and looped into the net.
A miserable afternoon for the Gunners was compounded in the dying seconds when Suarez applied a simple finish from Meireles's pass to wrap up Liverpool's first win of the season.
