| 45' | Ugarte gets things back up and running for the hosts! | |
| 53' | BALL IN THE NET!! Brighton think they've taken another early lead!! Ayari stands over a free-kick 30 yards from goal, and despite slipping over as he crosses the ball in, the Seagulls are still able to make the most of the chance. Welbeck and Van Hecke's flicks aren't dealt with, and with Onana coming to collect the loose ball, it falls for Joao Pedro and he slots underneath the goakeeper and into the far corner. The Seagulls wheel away in celebration, but Manchester United's players aren't happy about something... | |
| 54' | ❌ NO GOAL!!! Brighton's hearts are broken as the strike is ruled out!! VAR ask on-field referee Peter Bankes to review contact from Van Hecke on Dalot, and after he spots that the Seagulls defender didn't touch the ball, the goal is chalked off and a free-kick instead goes the way of the hosts. | Highlight |
