Brighton 1 Manchester United 0

Premier League | Amex Stadium | Attendance: 30,611 | Scorer: Gross 57

Manchester United suffered a first away league defeat since February on Friday night as hosts Brighton & Hove Albion secured a second successive season in the top flight.

Pascal Gross, the Seagulls' Player of the Year, settled the contest shortly before the hour mark with a header which Marcos Rojo seemed to have brilliantly cleared, only for goal-line technology to inform referee Craig Pawson that a goal should be awarded.

The Reds' own award-winner, David De Gea, was arguably the best performer for Jose Mourinho's men, making several fine saves to frustrate Brighton until Gross decisively broke the deadlock.
