GOOD SAVE!
Albion are attacking well here! Mac Allister plays in Welbeck again in the box, and he is able to lay it off for Trossard beside him, but Alisson rushes off his line to get down low to keep the shot out!

WELL HELD!
What a chance for Brighton! March advances down the right flank, and sends a floated cross for Welbeck in the centre of the penalty area, which he gets his head onto, but the header is just about held by Alisson as the Liverpool back-line breathe another sigh of relief!

WASTEFUL!
Salah has the ball on the right wing, and he picks out Alexander-Arnold on the edge of the box, but his heavy touch takes the ball away from him and Henderson cannot keep the ball alive.

GOALLLL! BRIGHTON LEAD!
What a start for Brighton here! Trossard strikes from close range! A cross comes in from the right, which Alexander-Arnold does not fully deal with, as he heads it back into the path of Henderson, but he loses out to Caicedo. Some one touch passing sees it threaded through to Trossard in the area, and he finishes it well into the bottom corner past Alisson!
