Brighton & Hove Albion secured an important 1-0 victory over Manchester City in their Premier League clash at the Etihad Stadium.
The only goal of the match was scored by Yasin Ayari in the 11th minute, giving Brighton an early lead and leaving Manchester City unable to make the most of their home advantage.
The victory continues Brighton’s impressive record of scoring early against Manchester City away from home. On Wednesday, Malick Yalcouyé needed just 30 minutes to put Brighton ahead in another encounter against City.
The result adds further excitement to the Premier League title race, with attention now turning to Arsenal, who face a tough test against Liverpool tomorrow.
Arsenal will have an opportunity to take advantage of Manchester City’s dropped points and strengthen their position in the title race. However, they must first secure a positive result against Liverpool.
