 May 7, 2022

Manchester United met Brighton” on Saturday in a bid to improve their European ambitions for the coming season. As Manchester United lose to Brighton, Cristiano Ronaldo laughs.

Brighton"

Although United is still mathematically feasible to finish in the top four, such a scenario appears implausible, with fourth-place Arsenal five points ahead after two less games. Nonetheless, in their final two games of 2022/23, the Red Devils will attempt to at least secure a place in the Europa League.

Brighton, on the other hand, overcame Arsenal and Tottenham last month but lost badly to Manchester City. After 35 games, they are in ninth place in the table, and only a win would keep their slim chances of finishing in the top seven alive.
United have had a poor season, but they are ambitious to finish strongly ahead of the arrival of new manager Erik ten Hag, who will take over on July 1.
On Monday, United defeated Brentford 3-0, while Brighton defeated Wolves by the same scoreline in their last match.

87th minute: The game seemed to be coming to an end. Maguire has been United’s most dangerous goal threat this season, latching on to a deep ball from a right-wing free kick and bundling it towards goal as it glides over everyone else. The flag raised once more. The ball breaks to Danny Welbeck, who is sandwiched between United’s midfield and defense. He drives in the middle and takes a long shot. The ball spirals just out of reach of the near post.
