Chelsea Crumble Again: Red Card Controversy Seals Blues’ Stunning Defeat to Brighton
Yankuba Minteh went close as Brighton continued in the ascendancy, with Brighton further frustrated when Welbeck volleyed narrowly wide of the left-hand post in the 72nd minute after Van Hecke’s blocked shot had fallen into his path.
Welbeck, though, atoned for his profligacy five minutes later when Minteh got down the left and whipped an inch-perfect cross into the box for the former England striker to head home from point-blank range.
Brighton continued to pile on the pressure and eventually it told, Yasin Ayari’s superb delivery to the far post headed back across goal by Mats Wieffer for De Cuyper to nod in and complete the turnaround.
