It wasn’t easy, though Liverpool is again the head of the Premier. Although the team Arne Slott He had a bad time in the first half against Brightonwho led the scoreboard, changed his attitude, his image and his success in the second half and, thanks to the goals of Gakpo and Salah (star), achieved a 2-1 victory, including the loss of Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City (2-1 at the house of Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth), put him in the lead, two points ahead of the English champion.
He Brighton was superior in the first half to a Liverpool team whose key players performed poorly. The ‘Seagulls’ took the lead in the 14th minute thanks to Ferdi Kadioglu (which took advantage of the help from the well-known veteran Danny Welbeck), the ‘reds’ were able to react. It happened that this past Wednesday the Liverpool eliminated in the round of 16 of the Carabao Cup, the English League Cup, itself Brighton.
Anfield fans, who already know the City of Manchester disappeared from the 9th minute, he was afraid that his Liverpool cannot take advantage of the possible shrinkage of those Guardiola. But those Arne Slott They were different in the second half and had many chances. To begin with, those Darwin Núñez, Virgil van Dijk or Mohamed Salah himself.
