Leon Balogun put up a strong performance on his full debut for Brighton and Hove Albion as they bowed 1-0 to Liverpool at Anfield.
Mohamed Salah’s 23rd minute strike condemned the Seagulls to their second defeat of the season – however, that did not rob the 30-year-old of some shine.
Balogun was on parade for the entire duration of the tie but was booked referee Christopher Kavanagh in the 60th minute for a strong challenge on James Milner.
59: Balogun's late tackle on Milner sees him shown a yellow card.
