Expertly saved a shot from Mitoma to keep the visitors in it. PEDRO PORRO - 6 Porro produced a lovely cross to set up Werner even though he was offside.
Struggled to keep Mitoma in check after the break and will probably be seeing the Japanese winger in his nightmares tonight. MICKY VAN DE VEN - 5 The second-half was a bad night in the office for Micky van de Ven who, alongside Udogie, was torn apart by Brighton’s blistering front line. You rarely see the Dutchman flustered but he really lost his composure at the Amex.
