Erik ten Hag’s Manchester United suffered a painful defeat in their second game of the 2024/24 English Premier League season.
The Red Devils conceded a second goal deep into injury time against Brighton and lost: 2-1
In the 32nd minute, the host scored, when Brighton striker Danny Welbeck tapped in after a cross from Kaoru Mitoma.
Within a few minutes, United thought they had come alongside, but a goal by Marcus Rashford was disallowed for offside.
After an hour of play, Mazraoui had a nice through ball in the house, after which Diallo scored via Van Hecke to make it 1-1.
In the 70th minute, ManUnited seemed to take the lead via substitute Alejandro Garnacho, but the ball was touched on the goal line by Zirkzee, who was in an offside position. In the 79th minute, De Ligt came on.
The defender could not prevent João Pedro from heading the winner into the net in the fifth minute of injury time.
