Joao Pedro headed a dramatic late winner as Brighton & Hove Albion defeated Manchester United 2-1 in their Premier League clash on Saturday.
Former Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck continued his impressive scoring streak against his former club by netting the opening goal in the first half.
Ahmad Diallo netted the equaliser few minutes into the second half.
Joshua Zirkzee prevented his teammate Alejandro Garnacho from turning the game around.
The summer signing from Bologna, who last weekend scored on debut to earn a 1-0 success against Fulham, touched home his team-mate’s goal-bound finish on the line while in an offside position.
Pedro then nodded home Simon Adingra’s criss in stoppage time as 31-year-old German Fabian Hurzeler maintained his 100 per cent start since replacing Roberto De Zerbi.
