It was an afternoon to remember for Solly March, as he helped Brighton & Hove Albion earn an impressive 3-0 win over Liverpool.

For the first time in his senior career, March scored twice in a match, with both his goals coming in six second-half minutes.

Alan Shearer, the Premier League's record goalscorer and a Hall of Fame inductee, was hugely impressed and included the midfielder in his Matchweek 20 Team of the Week.

Aaron Ramsdale (ARS)
"He made crucial saves to keep a clean sheet, with Spurs having more shots on target than Arsenal."

Levi Colwill (BHA)
"Didn’t put a foot wrong and barely gave Liverpool's attackers a sniff."

Gabriel (ARS)
"Superb yet again and kept Harry Kane quiet for most of the match."

Luke Shaw (MUN)
"Led by example at centre-back, as he stood up to Manchester City's formidable attack."

Sean Longstaff (NEW)
"The one thing he can work on is his finishing. If he does that he’ll be an unbelievable midfielder.”

Solly March (BHA)
"Roberto De Zerbi has taken his game to another level. He's adding an end product to his wing play, scoring his first ever brace."

Martin Odegaard (ARS)
"Another superb display from the captain. Scored their crucial second."

James Ward-Prowse (SOU)
"He fully deserved his goals, including that brilliant trademark free-kick.” 

Kaoru Mitoma (BHA)
"A real threat throughout. He terrified Liverpool, finding space and running at them time and again."

Marcus Rashford (MUN)
"He's in the form of his life right now. Scored the goal to win the derby."

Brennan Johnson (NFO)
"Hit two well-taken goals to move Forest further away from relegation."

Manager: Erik ten Hag (MUN)
"His substitutions helped to swing the match in Man Utd's favour. He's proving he's an elite manager."
