Neal Maupay Saves Brighton The Last Breath at The Crystal Palace
Brighton missed a chance to reach the top of the Premier League for the first time, the late-night drama at Selhurst Park when Neal Maupay saved a point for the Seagulls in the 96th minute
Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira told BBC Sport: “We are really discouraged, really disappointed. We knew how difficult it was going to be, we played a very good game, we might not have used the ball the way we wanted, but we let it develop in the game, we were consistent and we conceded a goal on the last shot.
They did what they did well.The first half didn’t have too many chances, they go on with a penalty, I don’t remember the second half either, it was an even game if you look at the statistics, I won’t apologize for our point. That’s 13 points out of six games, one good start but we can improve.”

Brighton coach Graham Potter told BBC Sport: “When you are 10 back in the 96th minute and score, it feels like a win. It wasn’t too much and we pushed in the second half and it’s an amazing feeling to get the tie at Crystal Palace.
We had the opportunity to score a second goal and when you t take the chances they can give you back and that unfortunately happened to us today. “We have to see the positive, how we play against one of the most informed teams in the league, we create opportunities, we work hard, that’s positive.But it’s still not enough to win games and we have to keep working.
This team and these players will improve.After the game I saw their faces in the locker room and they were just as disappointed as me and the fans, that’s the sign of a team that wants to win games and that gives me hope for the season. “The fans make these games very special, they are the extra players and the atmosphere was amazing today.
