Liverpool midfielder Alexis Mac Allister was impressed by Brighton after Sunday's win.

The Reds went behind before eventually winning 2-1 on Sunday.

Mac Allister said: "We didn't start as we wanted but it was an amazing game. We played against an unbelievable team. I know them [Brighton] very well, I know what they can do and it was a tough match but in the end we won it and we are very happy.

"I would rather not concede so early but the mentality of the boys is amazing and that is what you need when you are 1-0 down, and today we showed it again. But next time we have to start the game winning, not losing."

On setting up Mohamed Salah for Liverpool's second goal, he added: "He's been asking for some passes and assists from me during the week. In the first half we tried to be connected - he missed a couple but then in the second half he showed his qualities."
