The failure by Micky van de Ven or Destiny Udogie to cut out the cross led to Minteh’s opener. Then Rutter was free to receive Mitoma’s pass and run through on goal with no opposition. Worst of all was the third when Udogie failed to stop Rutter’s cross from the right, then Welbeck jumped above Cristian Romero in the box.

It is the first time Brighton have trailed a Premier League game by two goals at half time and come back to win. Seagulls fans couldn’t believe it as the Amex erupted at the final whistle after a remarkable game of two halves.
