Jose Mourinho, Manchester United Shocked by Brighton & Hove Albion 3-2

Brighton & Hove Albion earned their first points of the Premier League season after shocking Manchester United 3-2 at the Amex Stadium on Sunday. Paul Pogba converted an injury-time penalty for the visitors but couldn't stave off defeat.

Glenn Murray and Shane Duffy scored within three minutes of each other to put Brighton 2-0 ahead before the half-hour mark. Romelu Lukaku headed in to halve the deficit, but Pascal Gross converted from the spot to put the Seagulls 3-1 ahead just before half-time.

Eric Bailly had a defensive shift to forget, as Brighton ran out deserved winners and got their campaign up and running in style as deserved victors against one of England's powerhouses.
