It's still mad to think Man Utd once scored a winning penalty AFTER the final whistle blew

The ending of Brighton vs Manchester United in 2020 is surely the craziest in Premier League history.

United became synonymous with scoring injury-time winners under Sir Alex Ferguson – so much so that it was dubbed ‘Fergie Time.’

But under Ole Gunnar Solskajer at Brighton in September 2020, the Red Devils scored a winner AFTER the final whistle.

Incredible.

Even before injury-time at the Amex Stadium, it was a quite remarkable match.

Brighton dominated proceedings and took the lead in the 40th minute thanks to Neal Maupay’s cheeky Panenka penalty.

But within 180 seconds, Man United had equalised. Lewis Dunk turned the ball into his own net after good work from Nemanja Matic, who kept a Fernandes cross alive. 

The second half was dominated by VAR.

The hosts thought they had been given a second penalty when Paul Pogba was judged to have fouled Aaron Connolly inside the box. 

But VAR took a second look and overturned the decision. Minutes later, Marcus Rashford went up the other end to score, making it 2-1 to United. 

After huffing and puffing, Brighton appeared to finally get their rewards when Solly March equalised with a header in the 95th minute.

But even more drama was to follow.

United went up the other end and earned a corner.

From that corner, Harry Maguire’s header deflected off Maupay’s arm before being cleared off the line by March. After being cleared, referee Chris Kavanagh blew the final whistle.

However, United players claimed for a penalty for handball off Maupay despite full time being signalled.

With VAR in action, Kavanagh was advised to go over to the monitor where he decided that Maupay had handled the ball and awarded a penalty to United.

Bruno Fernandes stepped up and made no mistake with the final
