Man Utd 1-3 Brighton: Match report & talking points as Red Devils lose at home again

- Manchester United lose at Old Trafford for sixth time this season
- Andre Onana guilty of huge error for Brighton’s third goal
- Bruno Fernandes on target for United from penalty spot
Manchester United fell to their Man Utd sixth home defeat of the Premier League season on Sunday at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion.
Yankuba Minteh fired the visitors ahead early on, but a Bruno Fernandes penalty midway through the first half looked to have provided the platform United needed to go on and secure all three points.
However, a chaotic second half saw Kaoru Mitoma tap home at the back post, before a huge mistake from goalkeeper Andre Onana gifted Georginio Rutter a third in an eventful 3-1 victory.
How the game unfolded
It took Brighton just four minutes to open the scoring. Carlos Baleba’s delightful long ball over the top sent Kaoru Mitoma through on goal, and the Japan international unselfishly squared for Minteh to tap into an open goal.
United quickly took control of possession ทางเข้า UFABET สำหรับสมาชิกใหม่ สมัครวันนี้ รับโบนัสฟรี and the likes of Amad Diallo and Diogo Dalot had some Man Utd dangerous moments down the wings. Before Bruno Fernandes scuffed wide from the edge of the penalty area.
Two penalty shouts came and went before United were finally given a spot-kick at the third time of asking. Brighton were caught out by the home side’s press and Baleba ended up dragging Joshua Zirkzee down to the ground. Fernandes made no mistake from 12 yards to deservedly tie things up.
Amad looked like making it two. When he rounded Bart Verbruggen. But the young forward narrowed the angle for himself and could not put United in front heading into the break.
