Alisson Becker 6
Fielded a few first-half efforts and no chance with Brighton’s deflected equaliser, nor the injury-time winner.
Trent Alexander-Arnold 6
Fine clearance off line early on from Ferguson, but began to have issues with Mitoma second half. Subbed.
Joe Gomez 7
Pace was required to cover Brighton runners and decisive when stepping into midfield to challenge.
Ibrahima Konate 7
Strong-arming Ferguson prompted cheers from the away end and made his physical threat count. Booked.
Andy Robertson 6
Not much opportunity to raid forward first half but largely kept March in check. More opportunities to go forward. Booked.

Stefan Bajcetic 8
Some good interceptions – not least first-half tackle on Mitoma inside the area – and read game well having had to be careful after early booking. Subbed.
Naby Keita 6
Correctly survived handball shout in build-up to opener, although distribution didn’t always match solid pressing. Subbed.
Thiago Alcantara 6
Started with intent but lost his way midway through first half with some wayward passing. Better second half, however. Subbed.
Mohamed Salah 6
Had early shot cleared off line and wasted another fine opportunity when sent clear, but released Elliott for opener. More difficult to become involved second half.
Cody Gakpo 6
Held the ball up well on occasion and began to find joy when running at Brighton from deep. More promising outing.
Harvey Elliott 7
Plenty of endeavour down the left despite not in favoured position, and took his goal very well. Subbed.
James Milner (for Alexander-Arnold 59) 7
Used experience to get to grips with Mitoma and made positive difference going forward.
Jordan Henderson (for Keita 59) 6
Better than here a fortnight ago, brought energy.
Darwin Nunez (for Elliott 59) 6
Added pace down the left but not involved enough.
Curtis Jones (for Thiago 79)
Minutes in midfield.
Fabinho (for Bajcetic 85)
Lucky not to be sent off for a poor foul on Ferguson which he instantly acknowledged.
