Arsenal suffer second defeat in a row against Brighton

Arsenal suffered a second loss in the league by falling to its guest Brighton 1-2, after falling 3-0 last week against its host Crystal Palace, while Manchester United missed a golden opportunity by losing against its struggling host Everton 0-1.


After a series of distinguished results, the "gunners" returned to their bad results and suffered the third defeat in the league in the last four matches, after losing against Liverpool also in the middle of last month.

It is expected that the last meters will witness a fierce battle for the last qualifying seat to the Champions League, as both Tottenham and Arsenal have 54 points from 30 games, and West Ham and Manchester United each have 51 points from 31 games, noting that Spurs and the “gunners” have a match deferred between them.

And the unmarked Belgian Leandro Trosar opened the scoring for Brighton with a shot from inside the area (28).

Enoch Mwepo of Zimbabwe doubled the score with a superb goal when Ecuadorean Moises Iisido raised the ball, followed by his colleague low "on the fly" from the outskirts of the right-hand corner at the bottom right corner of goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale (66).

The Norwegian Martin Odegaard reduced the difference with a long-range shot to the left that bounced from one of the players to follow its way and fall at the top of the right corner (89).

And Spanish goalkeeper Robert Sanchez denied Arsenal a goal scored in stoppage time by blocking a great header from Eddie Nikita (90 + 5).
