THERE GOES THE FINAL WHISTLE!
All very frantic towards the end as Salah fires wide with Gakpo and Endo both booked, but Liverpool do enough for the three points. They move clear of Arsenal and Manchester City at the top. What a superb football match.
LIVERPOOL LOOKING TO SEE THIS OUT
Ryan Gravenberch takes over from Dominik Szoboszlai for Liverpool with Valentín Barco on for Pervis Estupiñán for the visitors.

BRIGHTON SAVED BY BART'S BRILLIANCE
Bart Verbruggen with a brilliant stop diving low to his right to deny Salah his second of the day. How did he get down to that? Meanwhile, Endo has been booked for a late challenge.
Yellow card
W. Endo
ANOTHER CHANGE FOR LIVERPOOL
Cody Gakpo replaces Luis Díaz for the home side. We are heading for six added minutes.

ALL GETTING VERY EDGY LATE ON
Still plenty of football to play this season, but these final few moments feel like a title decider. Very, very tense holding a one-goal lead.
LIVERPOOL ALMOST PUNISHED
Home side needlessly giving the ball away in the wrong area as Diaz is robbed of the ball before Lallana drags a shot just wide of the Liverpool goal. Home fans feeling the tension.
LATE CHANGES ON THE GO
Adam Lallana replaces Jakub Moder and Evan Ferguson takes over from Simon Adingra for Brighton as Liverpool's Harvey Elliott is introduced for Darwin Núñez.

DIAZ ON THE MARCH FOR LIVERPOOL
Such an expressive force of nature for the home side as his latest attempt at goal is somehow blocked by Jan Paul van Hecke. End to end this match right to the end.
BRIGHTON ALMOST STUN THE HOME FANS
Dunk rises to power a looping header at goal from a free-kick that sees Kelleher scramble the ball behind for a corner before the Liverpool keeper again halts a Dunk header seconds later.
INTO THE FINAL 10 MINUTES
Not sure how many minutes will be added. This match has really raced along, and Brighton aren't the sort of side who are interested in playing for time. Meanwhile, Dunk back doing what he usually does best to close down space as Liverpool look to break.
LIVERPOOL'S MAN OF THE MO-MENT
What can you say about this bloke that hasn't already been said? They'll miss him when he's gone.
GLORIOUS CHANCE TO CLINCH IT FOR REDS
Liverpool sweep up the field at pace from the Brighton corner, but Salah runs out of steam as his shot is held well by Verbruggen from the Diaz pass.
A BOOKING FOR BRIGHTON THIS TIME
Jan Paul van Hecke earns a booking for his role during the build-up to that Diaz disallowed goal. Could that be VAR call be a key moment?
Yellow card
J. van Hecke
VAR RULES OFF A THIRD LIVERPOOL GOAL
Salah with another sublime pass to pick out Diaz on the run. His finish somehow goes through the legs of Bart Verbruggen in the visiting goal. Assistant referee gets his initial call right. What a call that is.
FIRST CHANGE OF THE DAY COMES FOR VISITORS
Facundo Buonanotte replaces Tariq Lamptey for Brighton, who are deep in the trenches in this second half.

RETURN OF THE MAC
Brighton are getting full value for money from Alexis Mac Allister today. Justifying why they wanted so much money for the midfielder.
LIVERPOOL LOOKING FOR A KILLER THIRD
One more goal will put this match to bed surely. Brighton look like they're creaking with the home side building up a real head of steam. Baleba almost heads into his own net. Just clears the bar.
GOAL! (SALAH) LIVERPOOL 2-1 BRIGHTON
Can't say it wasn't coming as Salah accepts the pass from Mac Allister to finish brilliantly. Superb low finish from 12 yards out. Quick pass with Szoboszlai finding Mac Allister to supply Salah. Stunning goal.
