Manchester United suffered another home defeat on Sunday as Brighton & Hove Albion won 3-1 at Old Trafford.
A long ball over the top ensured Brighton scored first within the first five minutes. Carlos Baleba’s darting pass sent Kaoru Mitoma through and a simple cross-cut pass to Yankuba Minteh resulted in a comfortable pass.
Bruno Fernandes equalized from the penalty spot midway through the first half, but Brighton were back in front after the hour when Mitoma hit the back post before another bad error from Andre Onana gave Georginio Rutter the easiest goal of his career to bring the game to a close midway through the second Half time over.
The result leaves United 13th in the Premier League table, ten points above the relegation zone and 12 points behind the Champions League places. Brighton, meanwhile, has moved up to ninth place.
