Update: 04.05.2023 23:20

London – Brighton football players beat Manchester United 1:0 at home in the end of the 28th round of the English league. The match was decided by midfielder Alexis Mac Allister from a penalty kick in the ninth minute.

Brighton did not follow up on the shooting performance from Saturday’s duel with Wolverhampton (6:0), but still celebrated again. In what was perhaps the last action of the set-up, Shaw made a handball in the box and Mac Allister converted the awarded penalty with an uncompromising shot into the top corner of the goal. The Argentinian world champion also scored his sixth penalty kick of the season.

Manchester didn’t take the chance to get back to third place ahead of Newcastle, who are two points behind. The “Red Devils” have lost in the league after five games, yet they hold the last place to secure participation in the Champions League. Fifth-placed Liverpool is back by four points, and has also played a game more. Brighton avenged tonight’s FA Cup semi-final elimination by their opponents to move up to sixth place.
