It seems that Manchester United will continue its crises for the second year in a row after falling in the second round of the English Premier League, after the Brazilian Joao Pedro led his team Brighton to the second consecutive victory and came against its guest United 2-1 in the last minute.
Danny Welbeck opened the scoring for Brighton against his former team (32) and Ivorian Amad Diallo equalised for United (60), before Pedro snatched the three points (90+5).
Brighton raised their score to six points after beating Everton 3-0 in the first stage, while United suffered their first loss after beating Fulham 1-0.
After the two teams exchanged threats to the goal at the beginning of the match, Welbeck, who played for United from 2008 to 2014, managed to score after a pass from the Japanese Kaoru Mitoma amid poor coverage from the defense (32).
Despite United’s attempts, the team of Dutch coach Erik ten Hag failed to equalize during the remaining minutes of the first half, then Diallo equalized in the second half when he started on the right side after a pass from Moroccan Noussair Mazraoui, entered the penalty area, dribbled past a player, then shot, and the ball rebounded from the defense into the net (60).
While the match was heading towards a draw, Pedro snatched the win with a header following up a cross from Ivorian substitute Simon Adingra five minutes after entering the field (90+5).
