Manchester United v Brighton LIVE: Erik ten Hag's side bid to return to winning ways at Old Trafford without dropped winger Jadon Sancho

A merited victory for the visiting side. Ansu Fati again threatens for Brighton as André Onana makes the stop, but the hard work has been done for Brighton. They win this match 3-1 at Old Trafford with a classy and dominant victory.

Hannibal has his name taken for a late foul on Evan Ferguson. This game has gone for United. Well and truly gone.

There are going to be six minutes added to this absorbing contest.

André Onana is again called into action to halt a shot by Ansu Fati after some fine play by Pedro. Brighton so, so good on the counter attack.

Evan Ferguson is just on the pitch, but almost in for the fourth with a shot at goal that is kept out by André Onana.

Facundo Pellistri replaces Scott McTominay, Aaron Wan-Bissaka replaces Lisandro Martínez and Alejandro Garnacho is on for Sergio Reguilón.

But this time Christian Eriksen can't beat the first man with his delivery. And Brighton fall back into their compact shape to keep the ball.

Kaoru Mitoma races into the United box to get a shot away at the goal, but Onana stands tall at his near post to prevent that from finding the net.

On comes James Milner and Billy Gilmour as Mahmoud Dahoud and Tariq Lampte head off.

But easier said than done. A few United fans headed for the exit door when Brighton scored their third, but still time for the home team as Victor Lindelöf nods over the bar.

Hannibal Mejbri thumps a blistering shot low into the corner of the net from 25 yards. A magnificent finish from distance. No chance for Steele diving low to his left.

What a finish that is from Pedro, his first touch of the match since coming on. Tariq Lamptey with the pass for Pedro. And he opened up his body to finish in style. So clinical. They lead 3-0.

HOME FANS FEARING THE WORST

Game has not gone, but Brighton are not waiting for the pressure to come on either. They could easily add a third on the break.

Worth a go from distance, but Steele was quickly onto that one as he sped to his right to gleefully grasp the ball.

João Pedro replaces Danny Welbeck as Ansu Fati makes his debut to take over from Adam Lallana.

Anthony Martial replaces Rasmus Højlund, while Hannibal Mejbri is on for Casemiro.

Can't continue like this surely if you are Erik ten Hag, but you suspect Brighton are also going to make some alterations.

Joël Veltman taking no chances as he empties the ball out of play. No messing about at the back for the visitors. Has been a no-nonsense display by them all afternoon. And they deal well with the corner too.

Bruno Fernandes tries to lead by example, but his shot is well stopped by Jason Steele in the visiting goal.

They will finish the evening in third spot, a point behind Manchester City and Liverpool the way things stand. No wonder the away fans are in full voice.
