Liverpool claimed a convincing 2-0 victory over Brighton at Anfield, securing their first home win in the Premier League this season. Two first-half goals proved decisive as the Reds ended Brighton’s impressive winning run.
The hosts took the lead in the 17th minute when Florian Wirtz’s effort deflected off Pascal Gross and into the net for an own goal. Just four minutes later, Alexander Isak doubled Liverpool’s advantage, finishing Bradley Barcola’s cross to put his team firmly in control.
Brighton attempted to respond, with Yasin Ayari striking the post, but Liverpool defended their lead effectively after the break to secure all three points.
The result marked Liverpool’s fourth consecutive victory across all competitions and lifted them to fourth place in the Premier League standings. It was also a significant boost for the Reds as they look to build momentum for the coming fixtures.
