The 13th round in the Premier League started tonight (Friday) and even before the season game between Liverpool and Manchester City on Sunday, Ruben Amorim’s home debut at Old Trafford as part of the league against Everton and the London derby between West Ham and Arsenal or the meeting between Chelsea and Aston Villa, was It is Brighton who, although they rose to second place, but lost two precious points in a home game that was considered a rest against Southampton and ended at 1:1.
The Seagulls beat Manchester City before the national team break and came back from it with a 1:2 in Bournemouth, but against the newcomer who lost all of their away games this season within the league, they were unable to take advantage of the advantage and the momentum – in fact, luckily, they did not lose.
Brighton started the game with a storm and after some excellent minutes got their reward in the 29th minute when the Japanese Kaoru Mitoma scored the 0:1 from Tarik Lamptey’s level, but just then they dropped a gear and the Saints took advantage of this to equalize in the 59th minute from a kick by Flynn Downs.
Southampton had in fact already celebrated a dramatic turnaround when Tyler Dibling went on a personal drive that ended with Cameron Archer’s goal in the 69th minute, but after a longer-than-usual VAR review, the referee raised his hand to signal offside and the goal was disallowed. Brighton tried with all its might to turn around until the end, but failed time after time and as mentioned jumped from fifth place to second place, but will probably deteriorate later in the cycle. Southampton, in contrast, have their first point of the season away from home, but are still deep in last place with just five points.
