Liverpool were held to a 1-1 draw by Brighton at the American Express Community Stadium on Saturday, thanks to a controversial stoppage-time penalty.
The home side were looking to pick up back-to-back league wins for the first time since November 2019 after defeating Aston Villa 2-1 in their last outing but had to settle for a point against a depleted Liverpool.
Brighton missed a chance to take the lead on the first-half when Neal Maupay wasted a golden chance from a penalty after Neco Williams had brought down Aaron Connolly in the 20th minute.
The visitors, however, took the lead on the 60th minute when Diogo Jota looked netted his eighth strike in eight Liverpool games.
With a few touches, the Portuguese star fired towards the bottom-left corner making it unstoppable for Brighton’s Ryan to stop.
