Florian Wirtz twisted his ankle in Liverpool vs Brighton…
Liverpool midfielder Florian Wirtz expressed relief following Sunday's 2-0 home victory against Brighton & Hove Albion, noting he is ignoring outside scrutiny and judgment. Liverpool took the lead in the 17th minute when Wirtz's shot deflected off Pascal Gross, before Alexander Isak doubled the advantage with his sixth league goal of the season four minutes later.
The result marked Liverpool's first home league win since April 25, moving them within one point of Brighton in the standings. Wirtz, who was substituted due to an ankle knock, indicated he does not expect to be sidelined long-term as Liverpool prepare to face Chelsea in the EFL Cup on October 28.
