Manchester United Secure Third Consecutive League Win in Thrilling Encounter with Brighton
Manchester, UK – Manchester United continued their resurgence under manager Ruben Amorim, securing a 4-3 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion in a pulsating Premier League match at Old Trafford. The win marks United’s third consecutive league triumph, offering a tangible sign of progress under the Portuguese coach and fueling optimism amongst supporters.
This victory arrives as a significant boost for a United side seeking to solidify their position in the league and build momentum following a period of inconsistency. Amorim’s tactical adjustments and the integration of new signings are beginning to bear fruit, providing a foundation for a potential challenge for European qualification. The match itself was a rollercoaster of contentious decisions and dramatic goals, ultimately showcasing the evolving identity of Amorim’s team.
Bryan Mbeumo was the standout performer, scoring twice for United.His first goal arrived with a significant deflection off Yasin Ayari’s back, while his second was a powerful strike from a combination play involving new signing Benjamin Sesko. However, Brighton protested, believing Georginio Rutter was fouled in the build-up. Earlier in the match, United felt they should have been awarded a penalty when Amad Diallo was challenged by Maxim de Cuyper.
Brighton responded through Danny Welbeck,who curled a free kick past Senne Lammens for his fifth goal in four games. The equalizer came after Patrick Dorgu, a recent substitute and United’s last defender, received only a yellow card for a tug on Yankuba Minteh – a decision that drew the ire of Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler.
The game remained fiercely contested, with Brighton’s substitutions ultimately proving impactful.Charalampos Kostoulas, another substitute, headed in a James Milner corner for his first Brighton goal, demonstrating the blend of youth and experience within the Seagulls’ squad. The combination of the 18-year-old Kostoulas and the 39-year-old Milner highlighted Brighton’s dynamic approach.
Ultimately, United prevailed thanks to mbeumo’s late goal, a fierce shot that rattled the underside of the bar. This victory represents only the second time under Amorim that United have scored four goals in a league game, and the first occasion they have achieved three consecutive league wins.
“We had to suffer a bit at the end,but we wouldn’t be Manchester United without suffering a little bit,” Amorim remarked,acknowledging the challenging nature of the match. The result signals a positive shift for Manchester United,as Amorim’s vision begins to take shape on the pitch.
