Let’s start on the south coast, where Southampton came from behind to beat Brighton and move up to fifth in the Premier League.
Brighton had impressed in the early stages of an entertaining contest and deservedly went ahead when Pascal Gross converted a penalty after a handball from Saints captain James Ward-Prowse.
Ward-Prowse made amends with a pinpoint delivery from a corner that saw Jannik Vestergaard equalise with a powerful header into the top-left corner.
The game’s main talking point came on 81 minutes when Solly March was penalised for a late foul on Southampton full-back Kyle Walker-Peters.
The Saints player’s momentum from the challenge outside the penalty area carried him forward as the players tangled and tumbled into the box. Referee David Coote initially awarded the visitors a free-kick but despite multiple camera angles appearing inconclusive his decision was overturned – allowing Danny Ings to score from the spot.
