Nice and direct play from Ben Doak to create that chance. Wants to go past defenders, really challenge and get past them.

Great ball in by Gomez and as it falls from Diaz header, Mac Allister just can't get over it, and sends the ball well over the bar in the end.

Poor Silvano Vos. He looks mortified.

The senior members of the Ajax team console him.

Head up, son.

Liverpool have had 66.7% possession over the opening 15 minutes of this game.

First sniff for Alexis Mac Allister, playing in a position better fitting of his squad number (10) today. He lashes a shot over, via a deflection, from Luis Diaz's knockdown.

Joel Matip heads over from the resulting corner.

Cheers from the home fans as Cristian Casseres' sliding tackle stops a Cody Gakpo run through the middle.

Another shot on target for the home side, another comfortable save for Bart Verbruggen.

Highly-rated Icelandic midfielder Kristian Hlynsson drives forward and has a crack as no pressure is forthcoming.

Cody Gakpo rolls a free-kick over to Harvey Elliott, the only Liverpool player to feature in every minute of this Europa League campaign, and his long-range shot is blocked.

Kaoru Mitoma is diligently defending in his own penalty box, clearing the danger for the visitors.

But has he illegally used a hand? The Ajax fans, seconds after appealing for a foul in the area, think so.

I don't think so. The customary VAR check agrees. Play on.

What an eejit. Toulouse's Niklas Schmidt tries to stop Alexis Mac Allister taking a throw-in and gets a yellow card that he has to carry now for the next 79 minutes.

James Milner is back on the pitch. But not for long.

The Brighton full-back goes off and is replaced by midfielder Billy Gilmour.

That means a reshuffle with Pascal Gross dropping back to left-back and Joel Veltman switching flanks.

Left-back Pervis Estupinan is back on the bench, but clearly isn't ready to play almost 90 minutes.

Les Violets win another corner. They need a win more than Liverpool do here. The visitors eventually get it away.

Niklas Schmidt swings in a cross for the hosts but Liverpool clear.

TFC's Moussa Diarra thinks he has won a corner off Joel Matip and is not happy when the flag goes the other way.

A concerned and anguished expression on James Milner's face.

He shakes his head and lies flat on his back as the Brighton physios assess the damage.

Movement on the Brighton bench suggests his day is done already.

Oh dear. This is a proper injury concern - this time for Brighton.

James Milner goes down and immediately signals for treatment.

Looks like the former England international has tweaked something as he stretched in an attempt to block that shot from Steven Berghuis.

Few neat early touches from Luis Diaz, who will be so relieved his dad is safe in Colombia.

An early injury concern for Ajax.

Brian Brobbey goes down on the halfway line after a robust challenge from Brighton's Jan-Paul ven Hecke.

He'll be right.

Seconds later, Steven Berghuis cuts in from the Ajax right and bends a shot straight into the hands of Bart Verbruggen.

Good tempo to this already!

First big chance for the Reds.

Cody Gakpo swings in a free-kick from the left and Joe Gomez's flicked header hits the crossbar.

Also a tasty atmosphere in France.

Toulouse keeper Guillaume Restes is quickly off his line to catch a long ball.
