Brighton snatch 95th-minute victory

The game became very exciting towards the end, with Brighton stepping up when it mattered most. Joao Pedro scored the winning goal after a strong performance, showing he’s becoming a top Premier League striker. Brighton, under their young manager Fabian Hurzeler, who is just 31, are now at the top of the Premier League with two wins. After investing over the summer, the team looks very promising.

For Manchester United, old issues resurfaced. They had good moments, but in the crucial seven minutes of added time, they struggled. Brighton intensified their play when it counted and proved to be a strong team.

United had a goal disallowed when Joshua Zirkzee, who was offside, accidentally touched a shot from Alejandro Garnacho. Despite this, Brighton never let United take control of the game.

Danny Welbeck, a former United player, scored for Brighton in the first half, even though United seemed more productive during that period. Erik ten Hag, United’s manager, substituted Mason Mount and Marcus Rashford, as neither performed well. Zirkzee came on later and is making a case to start over Rashford.

Amad Diallo scored the equalizer for United with the help of a deflection. It was a great counterattacking move, but Garnacho’s goal was later ruled offside by VAR.

Brighton’s attack was impressive, with Joao Pedro playing alongside Kaoru Mitoma and Yankuba Minteh, and they look set to challenge teams this season. Simon Adingra, a substitute, provided the cross during a period of Brighton pressure, which led to Pedro’s winning goal.
