Alexander Isak extended his hot streak in Liverpool’s 2-0 win against Brighton on Sunday as Reds boss Andoni Iraola savoured his first Premier League victory at Anfield.
Iraola’s side struck twice in quick succession in the first half, with Pascal Gross’s own goal followed by Isak’s latest strike.
Isak has netted six times in seven league games this season and has three goals in his last four matches. After a turbulent debut season following his acrimonious move from Newcastle, the Sweden striker is finally beginning to repay his £125 million ($167 million) fee. It was a welcome first taste of top-flight success at Anfield for Iraola, who had failed to win his first three league games on Merseyside since arriving from Bournemouth in the close season. The Spaniard, who had won Champions League and League Cup games at Anfield, has led Liverpool to four successive victories in all competitions since the chastening 3-0 home defeat against Manchester City.
