"Manchester United" scored their first points in the new English Premier League season. In the 3rd round match, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's team defeated "Brighton" after a dramatic battle. In a five-goal thriller, "Man Utd" achieved a victory with a score of 3:2, when after the referee had already called the end of the match, it was decided to review the last attack, after which a penalty kick was awarded. In the 40th minute, Bruno Fernandes earned a penalty kick for the "Brighton" team. Neal Maupay, standing at the spot, cold-bloodedly beat David de Gea with a "panenka" style. However, in the 43rd minute, the score became equal when Lewis Dunk directed the ball into his own net. In the 55th minute, Marcus Rashford brought "Man Utd" ahead with an impressive run and knocking down several "Brighton" players on the ground. Nevertheless, in the 95th minute, the "Brighton" team managed to equalize the score after a few minutes of pressure. It seemed that Solomon March's goal would be the last point in this match, but a very rare incident occurred. With only a few seconds left, "Red Devils", managed to win a corner. During it, "Brighton" team managed to defend, and the referee declared the end of the match. However, after the whistle, "Man Utd" players approached the referee, demanding that the incident be reviewed because N. Maupay touched the ball with his hand after Harry Maguire's header. The referee eventually reviewed the incident and awarded a penalty kick to the "Brighton" team. There was only time to take the penalty, which was successfully converted by B. Fernandes, expanding the lead for his team. The "Man Utd" team scored three points on their account, but in these matches, "Brighton" faced incredible misfortune - a total of 5 times they hit the goalpost, and even three times the same player - Leandro Trossard hit the crossbar."
