Manchester United 1-3 Brighton and Hove Albion: View from the pressbox

Transcript

00:00Hello, I'm Sam Wharton, reporter for Sussex World. I've just watched Brighton beat Manchester United 3-1 at Old Trafford.

00:07It was a brilliant performance from Albion, who really are back to their best with three wins in a row now in all competitions,

00:13to end that eight-game streak without a win. And it's been a really good upturn in form, which is exactly what Brighton needed.

00:20And they always love a win against Man United, and they managed to get the job done again today,

00:25with Mente, Matoma and Rata all getting on the score sheet. And it was just a really comfortable performance,

00:31especially in that second half, and they really did put United to the sword.

00:35They've had a bit of an upturn in form themselves with good performances against Liverpool,

00:39Arsenal obviously got that late win against Southampton, but it really was poor from United today.

00:46Brighton were the better team for most of it, especially in that second half.

00:50It's a really good upturn in form, as I say, for Brighton.
