Brighton beat Crystal Palace and Brentford saw off Southampton as both clubs move closer to European spots
Brighton saw off Crystal Palace 1-0 and Brentford earned a 2-0 victory at Southampton as both clubs moved closer to a place in Europe. Palace fielded 19-year-old goalkeeper Joe Whitworth — after Vicente Guaita was ruled out on the eve of the encounter with injury — who became the youngest player to start a Premier League match in between the posts since Ben Alnwick in 2005. Ad After 15 minutes, Solly March drilled a shot into the back of the net when Kaoru Mitoma put him through on goal.
