Brighton and Hove Albion 3 Manchester United 2: Murray lifts Seagulls to another win over Mourinho

Manchester United lost for a third league game in a row away to Brighton and Hove Albion, going down 3-2 to Chris Hughton's men on Sunday.

Manchester United suffered an early blow in this season's Premier League title race as they went down 3-2 to Brighton and Hove Albion at Amex Stadium on Sunday.

First-half goals from Glenn Murray, Shane Duffy and Pascal Gross gave the hosts a third league win in a row against the Red Devils on home soil, a run that stretches back to 1982.

Romelu Lukaku got on the scoresheet for the first time this season, while Paul Pogba converted an injury-time penalty, but the victory was no more than Brighton deserved, with Jose Mourinho's side poor throughout.
