Welbeck capped a lovely move in the first half, involving Kaoru Mitoma, when he escaped Harry Maguire to poke home into the empty net from close range.

Welbeck then struck the woodwork with a header from close range, before United hit back through Diallo’s strike, which was deflected past Jason Steele.

However, Amad Diallo’s goal for Red Devils in the 70th minute, levelled the game.

Joshua Zirkzee’s goal woud have kept Manchester United ahead, but for the VAR that cancelled the goal.

The Seagulls, however, seized all three points in the 95th minute through Pedro to keep Fabian Hurzeler’s side top of the league.
