Match report: U23s seal comeback against Brighton in PL2

Liverpool U23s twice came from behind to beat Brighton & Hove Albion 3-2 in Premier League 2 on Sunday afternoon.

Evan Ferguson gave the visitors an early lead their first-half football merited, but Joe Hardy restored parity just two minutes after the break at the Academy.

Ferguson put Brighton in front again before the hour mark and the Reds responded once more, Tony Gallacher clipping home Owen Beck’s cross.

And neither Liverpool or Beck were finished – the full-back thumped in a sensational finish on 79 minutes to seal the comeback and secure three points.

Brighton made the first imprint on the scoresheet as the clock ticked into the eighth minute.
