Brighton 3-2 Manchester United: Match report, Jose Mourinho's side concede three in first half

Daily Mail  

At the end there was a roar but it was not the loudest one this stadium has ever heard. Glenn Murray opened the scoring for Brighton after sneaking past Victor Lindelof and flicking the finish home The striker showed great movement and a brilliant touch to divert his effort past David de Gea, who could not lay a glove on it Jose Mourinho cut an exasperated figure on the sidelines after watching his side give away three first half goals The Brighton players celebrated in unison as Manchester United stood with hands on hips after falling behind MATCH FACTS, RATINGS, AND MATCHZONE ANALYSIS BRIGHTON : Ryan 7; Montoya 7, Duffy 8, Dunk 6, Bong 7.5; Knockaert 7, Stephens 7.5, Propper 7, March 7.5; Gross 7.5, Murray 7.5. Brighton scored a quick-fire double through Glenn Murray and the outstanding Shane Duffy and, after Romelu Lukaku had pulled a goal back for United, Hughton’s team extended their lead again through a Pascal Gross penalty. Shane Duffy then doubled the lead for Chris Hughton's side after controlling well before slotting his finish into the corner The central defender celebrated scoring his first Premier League goal in style, wheeling away in front of the home fans Duffy took advantage of pinball in the box before steadying himself to plant the finish powerfully into the corner A beleaguered David de Gea could not believe what he'd seen from his defence after they allowed the ball to drop However, this team does not have enough fibre for that. Eric Bailly's mistimed lunge before the break on Pascal Gross gave a straightforward penalty decision for the referee The central defender looked downcast and knew he'd committed a poor foul to give Brighton the penalty De Gea managed to get a thigh on Gross' spot kick but the Spaniard could not prevent the German from scoring Gross raised a fist up to the Brighton supporters after the Seagulls managed to head into half time with a 3-1 lead The home supporters watched on nervously but Gross' penalty was just about good enough to beat the keeper United needed something in the second half and they needed it quickly.
