Brighton 2 Arsenal 1: Maupay scores last-gasp winner for Seagulls as Gunners throw away lead after Pepe screamer


NEAL MAUPAY’S collision with Bernd Leno left the keeper on a stretcher – then he scored past his replacement to win the match for Brighton.

Arsenal looked on track to secure three point after Nicolas Pepe scored a screamer in the second half to break the deadlock.

But the joy was short-lived for Mikel Arteta’s side after Lewis Dunk levelled the scoring just seven minutes later.

To quite literally add insult to injury, Maupay popped up in stoppage time to snatch the win for the Seagulls.
