After the match, we spoke to Brighton fan Kieran Maguire (@KieranMaguire) to hear his honest assessment of how the game panned out.
Q.What was the key in them thwarting Liverpool to such an extent?
The approach of swarming around Liverpool players and reducing options was key, especially in the first third of the pitch.
It made it more difficult for Liverpool to create clear-cut chances.
I thought this would exhaust some of our players and be exploited in the last 20 minutes, but both teams seemed to tire.
This is, perhaps, a by-product of a World Cup summer and a short pre-season.
