On the morning of May 5, the English defender made a mistake leading to a penalty that made Man United lose 0-1 to Brighton in the 28th round of the Premier League.

The two clubs offered the fans at the Amex Stadium a high-intensity pressing party throughout the first half. Man United was under great pressure but still managed to organize quite impressive transition situations based on the creativity of Bruno Fernandes.

The gap opened up several times with Antony, Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial. However, the attacking trio of the “Red Devils” could not take advantage, even though only goalkeeper Jason Steele was left in front of him.

On the defensive front, Aaron Wan-Bissaka continued to play well to limit the influence of Kaoru Mitoma. In the only time the English player was overtaken in the 4th minute, David De Gea was able to correct his teammates with a brave save with his face.

In the next minutes, the former Crystal Palace player regained his focus and continuously won Mitoma in one-on-one situations. “Gulls” lost their best attack, so they had to make a lot of shots from a distance. The efforts of Alexis Mac Allister, Facundo Buonanotte all sent the ball away from the target.

In the second half, the game tilted in favor of Brighton. Coach Robert De Zerbi’s army was on the ball with determination but could not penetrate the solid defense of Man United.

The judgment phase of Casemiro, the rolling of Luke Shaw, Victor Lindelof, Wan-Bissaka and the reflexes of De Gea helped the “Red Devils” stand before 15 shots from the home team.

Minutes 90+7, it seemed that the final whistle had sounded but no, Andre Marriner stopped the match to review the slow-down video. After a period of excellent play, Shaw became a criminal with a phase to let the ball touch his hand in the forbidden area. From a distance of 11 m, Mac Allister did not miss the opportunity to seal the victory for the home team.

Brighton has the latest goal in Premier League history (98 minutes, 12 seconds). Meanwhile, this is also the latest MU conceded in the Premier League era. The confrontation between Brighton and MU is always interesting. Remember in the 2020/21 season, MU even scored in the 90+10 minutes from the penalty spot to beat the host, although before that, the referee blew the whistle for the whole match.

The “Red Devils” left Amex empty-handed and were only 4 points ahead of Liverpool. Coach Ten Hag’s teachers and students have a bit of an advantage when there is still a match left.

The race for the top 4 promises to be interesting, when opportunities are still open for Man United, Liverpool and even Brighton. De Zerbi’s teachers and students have 55 points, 8 points behind MU but still have 2 matches in hand. If the “Red Devils” cannot improve their performance, especially away from home, they can completely be surpassed by the opponents behind.
