Brighton v Liverpool LIVE: Premier League result and reaction as Lewis Dunk equalises deep in second half

35 mins: Liverpool’s performance today has been too slow. It’s too easy for Brighton to defend against and when the hosts transition into attack they’re onto the front foot quickly almost shocking the Reds with the speed of their play.

Liverpool win the ball high up the pitch and a couple of one touch passes from Darwin Nunez and Dominik Szobozslai almost get Mo Salah in on goal but the ball is intercepted at the last moment.

32 mins: Close! Carlos Belaba collects the ball in the middle of the pitch and slices through the Liverpool midfield. He weaves and twists, bringing the ball to the edge of the box before scuffing a shot wide of the right-hand post.

Alisson leapt across but might not have reached that one had it been on target.

29 mins: Liverpool clear the next corner without too much trouble but can’t do anything with the ball when they boot it down the other side of the pitch.

Brighton transition quickly and send the ball over to Simon Adingra. He slips a fine pass into the box for Kaoru Mitoma but the winger miscontrols the ball and the Reds are forced to work it clear again.

26 mins: Pascal Gross looks for another goal with a fine run through the middle of the park. He brings the ball within shooting distance and sees his effort deflected behind for a corner.

The corner ball is played short before getting sent to Solly March who lifts a cross to the far side of the penalty area and wins another set piece.

23 mins: That goal will annoy Jurgen Klopp. Liverpool have been playing in such a way as to invite Brighton’s defence higher up the pitch and they’ve been undone at their own game.

Mo Salah has a wild shot from wide of the box in reply but it doesn’t go anywhere near the target.

20 mins: Shocking from Liverpool!

A terrible pass from Virgil van Dijk leaves Alexis Mac Allister with nowhere to go and his pocket is picked deep in his own half by Simon Adringra.

Alisson is off his line as Adingra brings the ball to the box which means the goalkeeper cannot get across to stop the low fizzing effort from finding the back of the net!

18 mins: This match hasn’t really caught fire yet. There’s been the odd moment for Brighton but Liverpool have offered little in terms of attacking prowess.

They’re very timid on the ball which is a surprise.

15 mins: Brighton counter-attack after winning the ball deep in their own half. A high pressing Trent Alexander-Arnold is swept past without too much trouble but the ball gets fed into Kaoru Mitoma.

Mitoma flies down the line and wins Brighton a free kick when he’s taken out by former teammate Alexis Mac Allister.

12 mins: Liverpool now manage to get some time on the ball inside Brighton’s half. The hosts are compact with their defensive shape and the Reds aren’t passing the ball around with much purpose.

It feels as though they’re still trying to get themselves into this match.

9 mins: Mo Salah has drifted into a more central position as Liverpool struggle to play out from the back. A lofted pass forward from Alexis Mac Allister just goes over his head and Darwin Nunez isn’t able to pounce on the loose ball before the hosts work it away.
