Brighton 2-1 Liverpool
FULL TIME! No Caicedo, no problem! Brighton beat Liverpool for the second time in two weeks to claim their place in the fifth round of the FA Cup. What a season they are having. Just brilliant.
It looked like we were heading for a replay but Mitoma's wonderfully-taken winner clinched a deserved win to pile more pressure on Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp.
They are OUT of the FA Cup.

90+6: Liverpool desperately trying to find a response but time is running out!
Brighton 1-1 Liverpool
HALF TIME! That's the half at the Amex. Super game. Liverpool led courtesy of Elliot's opener but Brighton levelled through Dunk and it's now nicely poised for the second half. Plenty of chances for both sides and hopefully more goals to come!
GOAL! Brighton 0-1 Liverpool (Elliot, 30)
That's clinical from Liverpool. Dunk gets tight to Salah and intercepts a long pass just inside the Liverpool half but Keita is there to put the ball straight back over the top for the Egyptian.
He carries it into the space in front of him and plays in Elliot, who looks up and fires a low effort into the far corner. Steele got something on it, but not enough to prevent it from creeping in.
There's a VAR check, but the goal stands. Advantage Liverpool!
Brighton 0-0 Liverpool
16: OUCH! A nasty one for Keita as he crashes to the turf awkwardly following an aerial challenge with Mac Allister but thankfully he's back on his feet and okay to continue.
Brighton 0-0 Liverpool
"Wonderful wide play from March - direct, decisive. His pullback was equally measured but Ferguson is wasteful. Hesitated for too long. Excellent anticipation from Alexander-Arnold, nevertheless."
Brighton 0-0 Liverpool
15: OFF THE LINE! At the other end this time!
Huge chance for the hosts! Brighton steal possession in their own half and suddenly March is rampaging forward on the right. He cuts a low ball across goal but Ferguson's first touch is poor. He does get a shot off, but Alexander-Arnold is back on the line to make the clearance!
Brighton 0-0 Liverpool
Sky Sports' Laura Hunter at Amex Stadium:
"Mitoma is already terrorising Alexander-Arnold - getting at him at every opportunity, and so far edging the head-to-head. Intrigued to watch that battle play out. The Liverpool full-back can ill-afford to take his eyes off him."
