Jürgen Klopp rued Liverpool's failure to build on a two-goal lead as Brighton & Hove Albion came from behind to claim a 2-2 draw at Anfield on Saturday.
A brilliant early strike from Jordan Henderson was added to by Sadio Mane’s header as the Reds went 2-0 up by the midway point of the first half.
However, Brighton halved their deficit before half-time through Enock Mwepu and Leandro Trossard equalised midway through the second period of a keenly contested match that featured several excellent saves from Alisson Becker.
