Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Liverpool shrugged off a red card for Alexis Mac Allister on his Anfield debut to beat Bournemouth 3-1 on Saturday as Brighton thrashed Wolves 4-1 to go top of the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Bournemouth had lost 9-0 on their visit to Anfield a year ago but could not have wished for a better start.<\/p>\n

The Cherries had the ball in the net within seconds but Jaidon Anthony’s tap-in was ruled out for offside.<\/p>\n

Trent Alexander-Arnold’s move into a midfield role resulted in a strong finish to a disappointing season for Liverpool last term, but he was guilty of giving the ball away for Antoine Semenyo’s opener after only three minutes.<\/p>\n

Liverpool needed some inspiration to kickstart their season after a 1-1 draw at Chelsea last weekend.<\/p>\n

Luis Diaz provided it as he flicked up Diogo Jota’s cross and then acrobatically fired an overhead kick into the bottom corner.<\/p>\n

Jurgen Klopp’s men led nine minutes before half-time, but Mohamed Salah needed a second opportunity to tap in the rebound after Neto had saved his penalty.<\/p>\n

The Egyptian has now failed to score three of his last five penalties, including one when Bournemouth won the last meeting between the sides in March.<\/p>\n

However, Salah’s strike was enough to edge him ahead of Steven Gerrard as Liverpool’s fifth highest scorer of all time on 187.<\/p>\n

The momentum could have swung back Bournemouth’s way when Mac Allister was harshly shown a straight red card for leading with his studs on Ryan Christie, despite minimal contact with the Scotland international.<\/p>\n

But the 10 men added to their lead within four minutes when Jota pounced after Neto could only palm Dominik Szoboszlai’s effort into his path.<\/p>\n

Japan captain Wataru Endo was then introduced after Liverpool finally landed a defensive midfielder on Friday after losing out on Moises Caicedo and Romeo Lavia to Chelsea.<\/p>\n

Seagulls soar<\/b><\/p>\n

Brighton banked a British record transfer fee that could rise to \u00a3115 million for Caicedo on Monday.<\/p>\n

But the Seagulls continue to soar under Roberto De Zerbi despite seeing their best players picked off by the Premier League’s elite.<\/p>\n

Kaoru Mitoma may be the next big-money departure and the Japanese international opened the scoring in stunning style at Molineux as he slalomed past four Wolves defenders before producing a classy finish.<\/p>\n

Wolves had thoroughly outplayed Manchester United despite losing 1-0 at Old Trafford on Monday.<\/p>\n

But they had no answer to Brighton’s speed of passing and movement as the visitors scored three times in the first 10 minutes of the second half.<\/p>\n

Mitoma teed up Pervis Estupinan to smash home for 2-0 before Solly March scored twice from Julio Enciso assists.<\/p>\n

Wolves pulled a goal back through Hwang Hee-chan, but a chastening afternoon for Gary O’Neil’s men wiped away the optimism surrounding their performance at United.<\/p>\n

Brentford are also making light of the absence of the suspended Ivan Toney as they won 3-0 at Fulham.<\/p>\n

Yoane Wissa pounced on an error from Issa Diop to open the scoring just before half-time.<\/p>\n

Bryan Mbeumo doubled the Bees’ lead from the penalty spot after Fulham captain Tim Ream was sent off for a second yellow card.<\/p>\n

Mbeumo then rounded off the scoring in stoppage time to lift Brentford up to second.<\/p>\n

Tottenham aim to get the Ange Postecoglou reign up and running later when they host Manchester United in their first home game since the departure of Harry Kane.<\/p>\n

Champions Manchester City are in action at 1900GMT when they host a Newcastle side that began the day on top after a 5-1 thrashing of Aston Villa on the opening weekend of the season.<\/p>\n
