From the source
Liverpool beat Brighton 2-0 and, for once, the game was shaped early rather than rescued late. Andoni Iraola’s side have developed a habit of responding under pressure, but this time they spared themselves the complication.
They started on the front foot, forced mistakes, won duels and made the match look far more manageable than it might have become. The result made it four wins in a row in all competitions and pushed Liverpool up to fourth in the Premier League table.
More important than the raw numbers was the manner of it. Brighton are awkward opponents, technically clean, aggressive in possession and capable of dragging defenders into uncomfortable spaces.
