Penalty drama at the death as Brighton snatch win against Manchester United

Alexis Mac Allister fired Brighton to sixth in the Premier League by converting a dramatic added-time penalty to dent Manchester United's Champions League hopes.

The Argentina World Cup winner emphatically dispatched the ball into the top left corner nine minutes beyond the regulatory 90 after Luke Shaw was penalised for handball following VAR intervention.

Albion's 1-0 win from a pulsating Amex Stadium contest moves them above Tottenham and Aston Villa, while leaving United looking over their shoulders at fifth-placed Liverpool.

The Seagulls sit just four points behind Jurgen Klopp's Reds with two games in hand thanks to the stunning late twist and are are now eight points behind fourth-placed United with a game in hand.

Goalkeeper Jason Steele told Sky Sports: "That was special. It was a big night for us and obviously you can't beat a last-minute winner.

"It wasn't about revenge (after losing to United in the FA Cup semi-final). Did we have a little bit of extra motivation? Probably. But I don't think it spilled over and we deserved to win the game."
