That is all from us here at Tribe as Brighton sting Manchester United with a late winner in the 95th minute to take all three points at the Amex Stadium. That keeps the Seagulls top of the Premier League whilst United drop to 8th, although it is still very much early doors in the new season. I'm Andrew Smith and thank you for joining me. Until next time!
Since 2022-23, Manchester United have lost more Premier League games thanks to goals scored in the 90th minute than any other side (6). That sort of statistic reeks of sloppiness, a negative attribute that plagued United last season. It's certainly early days, but habits of old seem to still linger for United and Ten Hag. The organisation between the midfield and defence has visibly improved and there are less glaring individual errors, but collectively, United should have dealt with both of Brighton's goals and that will be a concern for fans. As for Brighton, life after Roberto De Zerbi is looking quite rosy and Brighton fans will pray it continues. Exciting times on the south coast indeed.
BRIGHTON TAKE ALL THREE POINTS! Fabian Hurzeler gets rewarded for some bold changes and smart tactical nous as he claims his second Premier League win in his second game to maintain his 100% start to life in England. It'll be a tough one to take for Erik ten Hag and his United team, who suffer a defeat on their first away trip of the season. That disallowed goal will certainly haunt them as it would have given United the lead during a crucial period in the game. Overall, the game was balanced and could have gone either way- but Hurzeler deserves credit for his persistence as Brighton stole the show in the dying embers through Pedro. Diallo's powerful finish had levelled affairs after Welbeck's goal in the first half, but in the end it's Brighton who have the last laugh.
Brighton were queuing up at the back post for that goal! Awful defending again from United. They will rue that Zirkzee offside goal even more now.

BRIGHTON WITH THE LATE SHOW! They have only gone and snatched it! Brighton break United hearts with a goal right at the death. A corner is swung in from the right but is not dealt with, as Adingra picks it up. His shot is blocked down, but it falls back to him. He squares up Dalot and swerves a sensational cross to the back post where Pedro arrives to crash a header into the bottom left corner and send the Amex into delirium. Stunning scenes here.

SHOT! Close, so close. Enciso strikes from just outside of the box, Onana felt he had it covered and it whistles over his net. We have seen the young Argentine score from that sort of distance before.

United also make a change, as Diallo the goalscorer makes way for Antony.
