Perhaps Manchester United fans should have known this wasn't going to be their night when Lisandro Martinez smashed a wayward shot into Bruno Fernandes' face in the warm-up. Fernandes was left with a bloody nose, and Brighton duly gave United another by knocking them out of the FA Cup at Old Trafford.
It's 44 years since the biggest club in English football last fell at the first hurdle of both domestic cup competitions. But having been humiliated by League Two Grimsby in the Carabao Cup in August, United were eliminated by the excellent Seagulls here thanks to goals from Brajan Gruda and former Old Trafford favourite Danny Welbeck.
