BRIGHTON, England (AP) — Liverpool striker Hugo Ekitike lasted less than eight minutes before hobbling off with a left leg injury in the Premier League game against Brighton on Saturday. The France international was hurt in a challenge by Brighton midfielder James Milner in the third minute. After receiving treatment, he tried to run it off but couldn't continue and was replaced by Curtis Jones.
Ekitike was selected in France's latest squad ahead of friendlies against Brazil and Colombia in the United States. Liverpool was already without the injured Mohamed Salah and Alisson Becker. ___ AP soccer: https://apnews.
