Liverpool Edge Past Union Saint-Gilloise<\/h2>\n

Liverpool, who\u2019ve had a tumultuous week ever since the controversial goal denial in EPL, showed their smarts by beating Union Saint-Gilloise 2-0.<\/p>\n

First Gravenberch Goal for Liverpool<\/h3>\n

Liverpool\u2019s new signing from Bayern Munich, Ryan Gravenberch put in Liverpool\u2019s first goal in the 44th minute, marking his debut goal for the club. Gravenberch\u2019s goal was a simple tap-in after the USG keeper made a mistake while wading off Trent Alexander-Arnold\u2019s attempt at goal.<\/p>\n

Diogo Jota then came on to put in Liverpool\u2019s second in 90 + 2\u2019 in a match that saw brothers Kevin and Alexis Mac-Allister meet in opposing teams for the first time. Liverpool\u2019s performance was fluid, and it seems they are on to make as much impact as possible in all competitions.<\/p>\n

West Ham Beat SC Freiburg<\/h2>\n

West Ham, on their part, beat SC Freiburg 2-1. Lucas Paqueta opened the scoring for \u2018The Hammers\u2019 in the 8th minute. Roland Sallai then equalized for Freiburg in the 49th minute, with Nayef Aguerd making it two for West Ham as he went on to score their winning goal in the 66th minute.<\/p>\n

Brighton Draw Marseille<\/h2>\n

Perhaps in a small decline, Brighton drew Marseille 2-2 as both teams proved equally as lethal. Chancel Mbemba Mangulu opened the scoring for Marseille in the 19th minute before Jordan Veretout put in a quick second for Marseille just a minute later.<\/p>\n

Brighton\u2019s Pascal Grob then put in Brighton\u2019s first in the 54th minute, before Joao Pedro equalized after converting a penalty in the 88th minute. Unlike Newcastle<\/a>, Brighton have failed to recapture their last season form and it is still yet unclear how they will fare this season in all competitions.<\/p>\n
