Brighton attacker Kaoru Mitoma has become the most successful Japanese player in Premier League history. With his strike in victory at Manchester United on Sunday, it marked Mitoma 's 15th goal in the Premier League.

Mitoma is now the outright highest-scoring Japanese player in Premier League history, with 15 goals, moving one clear of former Leicester City striker Shinji Okazaki. Mitoma also got an assist on Sunday at Old Trafford, taking him to 12 in his Premier League career, double the total of any other Japanese player.

Just minutes after having a goal disallowed, Brighton get their go-ahead goal as Kaoru Mitoma gets a touch at the far post to make it 2-1 for the Seagulls at Old Trafford.

Ruben Amorim called his Manchester United side “maybe the worst team in the history” of the club after they fell to yet another defeat in the Premier League, this time at the hands of Brighton & Hove Albion.

He looked just like his dad scoring a hat trick in a 4-1 Bournemouth win against his father’s old club, Newcastle. A winner-within-a-winner gong goes to Tyler Adams, as the American defensive midfielder stole Kieran Trippier’s pass and assisted on Kluivert’s screamer of a third goal.

The Red Devils have now lost four of their last five matches at Old Trafford, and were second best in this contest.

Bruno Fernandes's 23rd-minute penalty cancelled out an early opener from Yankuba Minteh but Ruben Amorim 's inconsistent United side remain without back-to-back Premier League wins all season, and Brighton are becoming a bogey team, having now won six of their last seven league matches against United.

Kaoru Mitoma and Georginio Rutter were on target as Brighton claimed their first Premier League win since November at Ipswich.
