That was a real heart-stopping moment for Liverpool.

Villa have had so many chances.

Great example of how strong a runner Morgan Rogers is. He pushed away Gravenberch but he was just put under enough pressure to not be able to finish.

Incredible!

Straight away Villa are in and Morgan Rogers has a great chance to equalise in front of the Kop.

He puts it wide. How costly will that prove?

Back under way.

Out come the teams for the second half.

A big 45 minutes coming up for both Liverpool and Aston Villa.

Curtis Jones is fabulous at making runs. A lot of times he makes runs in behind and it allows Mo Salah to come inside on his left foot.

That has happened so many times this season.

Peter Campbell: Can Liverpool not just keep Kelleher as their number 1? Alisson has been incredible for them over the years, but is injury prone. I for one would welcome Kelleher being the outright Liverpool number 1 keeper.

Ibrahima Konate is another who has been brilliant so far this season. He's been revitalised. I think Arne Slot's set-up has helped him, there's not as much risk out of possession.

Back to Anfield where Liverpool lead but have lost Trent Alexander-Arnold to a suspected hamstring injury.

Brighton & Hove Albion

Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: “I’ve had great experiences at my former clubs, so I wouldn’t say it’s the biggest win of my career – but it’s an important one.

“Last week, we talked about a great performance but not the result against Liverpool. Today we got a result, so I’m happy."

What he told his players at half-time: “In possession, to stay more patient and to make City move. In the first half, we played too many vertical balls and gave too many easy balls away. The subs were great for us. They had an impact and if you have that in the squad, it helps you.”

On Carlos Baleba: “Every player who came on had an impact on the game. Of course, Carlos is showing a great development. He’s a different style of player. He has a different profile, and sometimes you need that profile to get back control of the game.”

On Matt O’Riley: “Part of it is how he worked for his comeback. A lot of players would keep their head down and be negative, but he was very positive. I’m happy he got what he deserved.”

On Brighton’s fans: “It’s so important to have the crowd behind us. They’re our 12th man. We have to make the Amex like our home castle. It’s the support from the fans that makes other teams’ experience not that easy. They’re the most important people and we need to make them happy.”

Manchester City

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, speaking to Sky Sports:

On City's injured players: “They are not here. The guys [who played] did really, really well. They were magnificent. Brighton are good with the ball. They are not easy to control. In the first half we were brilliant, but in the second half fatigue [sets in] and they make changes.

“We will clear our heads and come back after the international break.”

On four defeats in a row: “Two in the Premier League. You have to count the victories and defeats, and we will win a lot. If you have to count how many victories in a row, we are far away from that position.

“It’s not nice to lose two in a row. The performance in certain moments is good, but not in all the minutes we need. We have to change to win again. We’re not far away – second going into the international break.”

On whether City will be stronger once players return from injury: “I don’t know, but we’ll be better. It depends on everyone – all the squad.”

Manchester City

Manchester City captain Kyle Walker, speaking to Sky Sports: "We watched Brighton’s game against Liverpool, when Liverpool started well and then, suddenly, Brighton came out.

“We were arriving to the ball a little bit late, but I think it’s the period we’re going through at the minute. The international break has come at the right time.

“There are many reasons [for our dip in form]. How you’re feeling on a day-to-day basis. It’s been tough, but we’ve been fortunate over the past eight years to have a lot of success here. You have to show character. You have to stick your wellies on and get through the mud.

“Brighton have a philosophy and foundation that they’ve built at the club, but we’re Manchester City. We’re the reigning champions and should come here and definitely get a result.”

On City’s injuries: “We’ve got a good group of players in there. The players who are injured are sorely missed [but] we’re not here to complain. We’re here to play football and make sure we get results for this football club.”

On the club’s losing run: “It’s down to us as players. We have to show we’re fighting for this great club. It’s tough to take, and I assure you that everyone wants to turn it around as quickly as possible.”

Brighton & Hove Albion

Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler, speaking to Sky Sports:

On the win: "It is something special of course. Every game is really challenging in the Premier League and it is really hard to compete with all of the managers who have a clear style of play.

"Manchester City is one of the best teams in the world and Pep Guardiola is one of the best managers in the world but the victory against them only get three points. It's so important to be happy, proud, to stay humble, to stay grounded."

On Matt O'Riley: "The players have individual quality, they have the feeling and timing for the space. They know when to attack the space. Matt [O'Riley] had these moments at Celtic. It is also a little bit of individual quality from the players. Happy for him to come back strong after a really hard period of time for him. He was staying so positive during the rehab, he was always positive and kept his head up and now he gets what he deserves today."

On what Brighton can do this season: "With the potential of the squad, with the support from our loyal supporters, I think we can play a season to remember, we can challenge the establishment. It's so important to have ambitions and clear goals in your life. Goals and clear visions always makes yourself a promise not to give up and give you a clear orientation of where we want to go. That's so important in life and let's see what happens."

Manchester City

Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: "We are not able to do 90 minutes right now. We played a really good first half and moments in the second half. We lost again so clean our heads, international break and hopefully our players come back fit.

On Brighton being a good team: "Yeah it is. From since Graham Potter was here, they have good young players, good quality.

On whether form is a worry: "We have to try and win games again. We were not able to sustain the rhythm in the second half. Four [defeats] in a row. We have to change things quick. The schedule becomes tough but it is going to happen when the players come back. Maybe after seven years winning six Premier Leagues, maybe one year another team deserve it. We see what happens in Liverpool against Aston Villa, we'll see.

On Jahmai Simpson-Pusey: "He played really, really good today, really really good. It's not easy to play in these circumstances. He was really, really good."

If you're just joining us, Manchester City lost earlier to Brighton after conceding two late goals. It means Liverpool will go five points clear at the top if they finish the job against Aston Villa.

Let's get some reaction from the Brighton and Man City camps.

This could be a very good day for Liverpool.

Youri Tielemans is cautioned for wrestling Curtis Jones to the ground.

That would not have looked out of place on a rugby pitch.

Confirmed. Jacob Ramsey cannot carry on. McGinn is on.

Both sides have been forced into first half changes.

After Trent Alexander-Arnold is forced off with an injury, Aston Villa's Jacob Ramsey has now gone down with what looks like a hamstring injury. John McGinn is getting ready to come on.
