Dominik Szoboszlai scored the second goal as Liverpool beat Brighton 3-0 in the FA Cup.

What happened?

Liverpool's victory was fueled by Szoboszlai's outstanding performance, with the Hungarian midfielder scoring his 10th goal of the season.

He has also added seven assists, showcasing his versatility and skill on the pitch.

Why it matters for Dominik Szoboszlai

Szoboszlai's excellence has earned him comparisons to former Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, with his all-action performances drawing parallels with the legend.

But Szoboszlai stressed he wants to create his own story at Anfield, rather than emulating Gerrard's success.

What comes next?

Mohamed Salah believes Liverpool's campaign will hinge on Szoboszlai's performances, saying "it will depend on Szoboszlai's performance because we rely on him so much this season."

Arne Slot, Liverpool's boss, agreed with Salah's sentiment, stating "I definitely agree with Mo that Dominik is one of the world's top players."

Szoboszlai has deputised to a high standard in unfamiliar roles at right-back and right-wing to combat injuries, demonstrating his adaptability and dedication to the team.

As the season progresses, Szoboszlai will be crucial to Liverpool's success, with his performances potentially deciding the outcome of their campaign.

And with his current form, Szoboszlai is certainly one to watch, with his skills and talent making him a standout player in the world of football.

But for now, Szoboszlai remains focused on creating his own story at Anfield, rather than living up to comparisons with Gerrard.

So far this season, Szoboszlai has played a key role in Liverpool's success, with his goal against Brighton being a notable highlight.
