PLAYER RATINGS: Alexis Mac Allister reminds old side Brighton what they're missing with an inspired Liverpool display - but Darwin Nunez's decision-making continues to frustrate

Liverpool have returned to the top of the Premier League after a 2-1 win over Brighton at Anfield, thanks to Mohamed Salah's second half strike.

The Reds got their first win over a Seagulls side managed by Roberto De Zerbi, but were dealt an early blow with the visitors took the lead.

Danny Welbeck smashed home the opener inside the first two minutes of the game, before Luis Diaz pounced to draw the hosts level before the break.

Jurgen Klopp's men launched a second half onslaught on the Brighton goal and were eventually rewarded when Mo Salah slotted home the winner to send Liverpool back to top spot.
