Salah came off the bench for his first Liverpool appearance since claiming after last weekend's 3-3 draw with Leeds that he had been "thrown under the bus" by the club.
The 33-year-old was left out of the squad for the midweek Champions League win at Inter Milan, but returned for the Brighton game following talks with manager Arne Slot - and claimed an assist in the 2-0 win.
