Brighton avenged their recent FA Cup penalty shoot-out defeat to Manchester United by claiming a 1-0 win thanks to Alexis Mac Allister’s dramatic stoppage-time penalty.

United, hoping to consolidate their place in the top four, were dealt a huge blow when referee Andre Marriner was sent to the pitch-side monitor in the 97th minute of an otherwise goal-shy encounter, awarding a last-gasp spot-kick for a Luke Shaw handball.

Mac Allister, roared on by a raucous Amex crowd, kept his cool expertly to thump the ball beyond the clutches of David De Gea, ensuring Brighton rise to sixth in the table, four points adrift of fifth-placed Liverpool with two games in hand.

The Seagulls’ chances of catching United and scraping into the Champions League spots remain extremely slim, with Erik ten Hag’s side eight points better off, but a top-five finish remains a distinct possibility going into a hectic final month of fixtures.
