Brighton’s goalkeeper Mathew Ryan watches the ball go right next to the post after the Manchester United footballers’ action.
Manchester entered the league season with an unexpected home loss 1: 3 with Crystal Palace and did not even make it into today’s match. Brighton took the lead in the 40th minute after Neal Maupay’s “panenkovsky” converted penalty. For the first time in the history of the competition, United collected penalties in both opening matches of the new league year.
The Red Devils leveled three minutes after Lewis Dunk’s own shot. The English defender has scored his fifth goal since his debut in the Premier League in August 2017, the most of all players.
In the second half, the referee first called Brighton a penalty and Rashford scored again for an offside. But Rashford saw it when he played with the home defense and turned the score around. Brighton equalized in the fifth minute thanks to Solomon Marche.

However, the referee let the game continue after the added time and Maupay unhappily played in the penalty area. The referee ended the match, but due to a controversial situation, he went to watch the video and finally whistled a penalty in favor of United, from which Fernandes was not wrong.
“You can imagine it was like a roller coaster with emotions. At first they were really high because we thought we scored the last goal of the match after a fantastic response to United’s leading goal,” said Brighton coach Graham Potter in an interview with beIN SPORTS .
“Then it was surprisingly continued, the referee is responsible for the setting, not us. Of course it’s frustrating when they whistle a penalty against you after the final whistle. But overall I am very proud of the team. We showed a fantastic performance. , “said the 45-year-old Englishman.
His charges shot the construction of the goal five times. “Brighton may say he was better. But the main thing is to score goals and not bars or crossbars,” Fernandes told BT Sports.
Everton sent Dominic Calvert-Lewin into the lead in the tenth minute. The English striker also scored among the shooters in the third Premier League duel of the season and scored overall for the fifth time. The London team equalized, but in the 40th minute Richarlison did not hesitate from the penalty. “Caramels” are the first in the incomplete table.
