Brighton net twice at the death to claim comeback win away to 10-man Chelsea

Brighton struck twice in second-half stoppage-time as 10-man Chelsea threw away the lead to slump to a 3-1 Premier League defeat at Stamford Bridge.

Maxim De Cuyper’s header put Brighton into the lead at the start of 11 added minutes at the end of the match to stun the home side, who had laboured ever since the dismissal in the 53rd minute of Trevoh Chalobah.

Substitute De Cuyper was left unmarked to nod the ball home after Mats Weiffer had turned Yasin Ayari’s deep cross back into the box, before fellow substitute Danny Welbeck added a third – his second – to finish Chelsea off.
