Sweet revenge for Brighton, who are a good football team.
You’d have to say it’s quite lazy fare from the Premier League scriptwriters to hand Brighton an injury-time penalty to beat Manchester United 11 days after the heartbreak of the FA Cup semi-final shoot-out defeat against the same opponents.sometimes there’s nothing wrong with a feelgood Hollywood endingAlso hard to argue Brighton didn’t deserve it on the balance of play across 90 enthralling minutes that pretty much followed on from.
It was some penalty from Mac Allister, too, drilled unsavably high and hard to De Gea’s right as the United keeper – who had been a key reason the game remained goalless as long as it did – tumbled to his left. They deserve it, and while any Manchester City fan watching this will have thoroughly enjoyed the denouement it was a game that will have left them hoping to have the Premier League title squared away before heading here in the final week of the season if at all possible.
But that a league season that offered fleeting glimpses of a title challenge ends with a slightly nervy scrap for fourth remains a slight disappointment, and it is their record away at half-decent teams that has been the problem.
