Sussex World reporter Sam Morton gives his thoughts on Brighton's performance at Molineux.

Transcript

00:00Hello, it's Sam Morton, reporter for Sussex World.

00:04I've just watched Brighton draw 1-1 at Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molyneux.

00:08It was a pretty poor performance on the whole from Brighton today.

00:12They rescued a point in the end, but they probably deserved to lose

00:16when you consider the chances that Wolves had.

00:18They had a big chance for 2-0 and they also hit the post as well.

00:23Australian Larson was dangerous and you felt that Wolves were the most likely team

00:28to add to their lead rather than Brighton equalise for a lot of it.

00:31But Jan-Paul Van Heek was the man to rescue the point with the bullet header

00:36from Stevanos Simas-Gross.

00:38It was really a good moment for Albion, something for the fans to cheer.

00:44There will be some concern and disappointment that they performed the way they did today.

00:48There was just a real lack of cutting edge and quality around the pitch.

00:53A lot of silly challenges and tackles being made in the first half

00:57that ended up being in bookings.

01:00Hertzler wasn't too happy with that.

01:02He said it was too quick for the referees to give out yellow cards.

01:06But there will be some home truths as well about how to deal with these kind of games.

01:11It's frustrating that they've dropped points against a team that still haven't won yet this season

01:16and it could have been worse.

01:17So for all of the player ratings and match reaction, see sussexworld.co.uk

01:22will be the best.
