Mwepu gave Brighton different option in comeback draw vs Liverpool – Potter

Brighton & Hove Albion manager Graham Potter was impressed with the standout display of Enock Mwepu after they rallied to secure a 2-2 Premier League draw against Liverpool on Saturday.

The 23-year-old Zambia international was given the central midfield berth alongside Mali international Yves Bissouma while Adam Lallana was allowed to occupy a more advanced role.

And in the end, the Seagulls pulled off a dramatic comeback after going behind 2-0 in the first 24 minutes courtesy of goals from Jordan Henderson and Senegal international Sadio Mane, to pick up a vital point at Anfield.

It was Mwepu who halved the deficit in the 41st minute for his first top-flight goal before Leandro Trossard made it 2-2 in the 65th minute.
