Liverpool v Brighton live: Premier League latest score and updates as Mohamed Salah sets up Hugo Ekitike goal for assist in possible final match

Liverpool 2-0 Brighton

70 mins: There is still scope for Brighton to ruin this for Slot and Salah. They have had some of the better chances in the game and looked the more dangerous immediately after half-time. Fabian Hurzeler has brought on Kaoru Mitoma to test the stand-in right-back Szoboszlai and he has already had one shot.

69 mins: Anfield has been a quiet place at times over the last few weeks but it is rocking now. Szoboszlai is back up and carrying on, which is a relief. He has been their best player this season.

68 mins: Brighton threaten as the substitute Kaoru Mitoma is put through but Alisson denies him with the forward under pressure.

The concern for Liverpool is that Dominik Szoboszlai has stayed down.

65 mins: Four goals in two Premier League games for Hugo Ekitike, as Alexander Isak watches on from the bench. That’s a big one for Liverpool, too, with their one-goal lead looking a little shaky.

GOAL! Liverpool 2-0 Brighton

A Salah assist. The unmarked Ekitike headed in the Egyptian’s corner. Each has looked for the other in the last few minutes. Now Liverpool have benefited.

Ekitike’s name rings around Anfield. Salah’s too.

56 mins: Brighton continue to threaten! It’s Gruda this time who flashes the shot wide, narrowly missing Alisson’s goal, after creating space for the effort. They should be level by now, especially after Gomez’s big miss from just four yards.

Liverpool 1-0 Brighton

Another shot from Ekitike, who has been really bright today. It has been another game to demonstrate that he has been far and away Liverpool’s best striker this season and that Alexander Isak, when he next gets on the pitch, could do with being this lively.
