Isak praises Liverpool 'intensity' after 2-0 win over in-form Brighton
Liverpool secured a 2-0 victory against Brighton at Anfield, with goals from Alexander Isak and an own goal by Pascal Gross. The win marks Liverpool's first home league victory of the season and continues their four-game winning streak.
Why it matters
The result highlights Liverpool's improving form and tactical intensity under new management as they prepare for upcoming high-profile fixtures.
Alexander Isak believes Liverpool are beginning to show the intensity that Andoni Iraola demands after beating Brighton 2-0 at Anfield.
Isak scored the second goal after Liverpool took the lead through Pascal Gross' own goal, as the Reds claimed a fourth consecutive win in all competitions.
The Swedish striker's goal was his sixth of the Premier League season, as he turned in from Bradley Barcola's cross. The deadlock has been broken just four minutes earlier, when Florian Wirtz's strike deflected in off Gross.
Victory was Liverpool's first at home in the Premier League this season, and Isak was delighted with the manner of the result against an in-form Brighton side.
The Seagulls had won four consecutive league games without conceding before arriving at Anfield.
