Jack Hinshelwood, a Brighton star, gave the team their late winner with a stunning goal on Monday to earn a 3-2 win against Premier League champions Liverpool.
The Reds formerly secured the lead after Harvey Elliott fired into Brighton’s net in the early minutes of the game, but not too long later Yasin Ayari equalized for his side at Amex Stadium.
As the first half of the game was nearing an end, Dominik Szoboszlai restored Liverpool’s lead only for Kaoru Mitoma to score an equalizer for Brighton late on.
Some minutes later, Hinshelwood, who came into the game from the bench, scored with his first touch to achieve a comeback.
Liverpool had already been crowned Premier League champions this season after they put down Tottenham in their faceoff and have only achieved one point in their three games after they emerged the league winners on April 27.
Liverpool lost their games against the Blues and Brighton, and gave them a two-goal lead slip in a draw with the Gunners.
Liverpool are really not putting enough into subsequent games after securing the trophy on April 27. The head coach of Liverpool, Arne Slot, says it has been a difficult job motivating his team, especially after they returned from their celebratory trip to Dubai, while he has his own party in Ibiza.
A guard of honor given to Liverpool by Brighton was not enough to give the title winners an edge. Trent Alexander-Arnold, who will be on his way to Real Madrid after the season, was placed on the bench again.
