Off ⬇️ Ayari
In ⬆️ Hinshelwood
Also, the fourth official says five more minutes of stoppage time will be played. Quite a few minutes were given considering that in this time, not much time was wasted.
Off ⬇️ André
In ⬆️ Mané
A 17-year-old player enters the field thinking that maybe the coach, seeing that the game is practically defined, give the opportunity to players like these to take minutes in the Premier League.
Brighton's goal, Gruda scored it. Adingra, who saw Gruda who was getting into the box and receiving the ball and in front of Sa's exit, he bites the ball very well with a great definition to score his team's second goal of the match.
Off ⬇️ Minteh and Baleba
In ⬆️ Gomez and Mitoma
Changes designed to give freshness to the left wing, as well as to the midfield, which was getting a bit tired as the minutes went by and did not look as effective as in the first half.
Definitely, after the match was stopped by that blow, both teams lost that intensity where this has been better for Brighton who are already having good control of the ball and preventing Wolves from getting close to their goal.
Once again the match was stopped due to a blow suffered by Ait Nouri. The player had to be treated and the match seemed to lose some of its frenetic pace as both teams were looking for their own goal.
The game is becoming very back and forth, where Wolves' best chances don't end up in the best way, partly because Verbruggen has been able to clear them very well. On the other hand, Brighton are finding several spaces when they go on the counterattack.
Wolves:
Off: ⬇️ Cunha, Guedes, Doherty and Joao Gomes.
In: ⬆️ Bellegarde, Rodrigo Gomes, Larsen and Sarabia.
4 direct changes that the coach sends to the pitch, thinking of maybe trying new players, some new tactics, even having had a goal arrival with Cunha in which Verbruggen saved very well.
Brighton:
Off ⬇️ O'Riley and Lamptey
In ⬆️ Gruda and Adingra
Wolves continue to have possession and control of the ball but have yet to find any clear space to get a direct shot on goal to bring them closer to tying the game. Still and still looking for the home side to get well into Brighton's box.
The second half started with Wolves wanting to get back to the intensity with which they started the first half. They were looking to accumulate a lot of people in the area through touches, and when sending a cross into the box, to have several finishers.
The second half starts with both teams starting with the same 11 players that played in the first half. We will see if Wolves will focus on attacking to get the equalizer or if Brighton manages to hold on or increase the score.
The first half ends between Wolves and Brighton. A game that momentarily has Brighton winning from the penalty spot, but still being a fairly even game by both teams. We will see how the second half develops.
The second caution of the match is Wieffer for Brighton. The player was cautioned because in a previous play in which the law of advantage was given, the Brighton player made a grab on Ait Nouri, so when the game was stopped, the referee cautions him, being the second in the match and the first in Brighton.
The fourth official says seven more minutes will be played. Quite a lot of extra time because of the time lost in the review of the disallowed Brighton goal. We'll see if in this time, any team gets a goal that will help their hopes for this match.
Brighton are now well in behind with the whole team deep in their own half. Wolves, for their part, are playing from wing to wing trying to find some space against a Brighton team that looks quite closed.
Wolves want possession but Brighton are winning the ball back well from midfield and are finding space to get out in attacking transition. Despite the spaces, Brighton are not looking that desperate in their search for that second goal.
The goal seemed to hit Wolves hard and when they tried to attack, they didn't look as organized and even looked a bit desperate to try to get a quick equalizer. Brighton is looking for a calmer game where they can easily control the ball.
Goal for Brighton, scored by Welbeck. Welbeck was the executor of the penalty in favor of his team, where with his right foot, he shot his shot to the left post of Sa, who ended up diving to the other side. Now Brighton wins the match by a score of 0-1.
Penalty for Brighton. Cunha received the ball near his area and Wieffer managed to anticipate the ball very well and getting into the box, Cunha himself ended up knocking him down inside the box, so Oliver decided to give a penalty and a yellow card to the Wolves player.
After the VAR review, the referee is told that in that Welbeck shot, Minteh participated in the play by going in the dispute of that ball when Welbeck shot at goal, so the goal does not go directly on the scoreboard and we remain 0-0.
Brighton's goal, scored by Welbeck. From a slightly punctured cross from the right flank, flicked on by Lamptey with his left foot, it came to Welbeck who lunged in and struck the ball with his left foot. It remains to be seen if Minteh is involved as he was ahead so the play will be reviewed.
The match was stopped, this time due to a blow to Ait Nouri's head from a clearance he made in his own area. The staff went in to attend to him, hoping that the player was still okay and it seems that he will be able to continue without any inconvenience.
The game lost a bit of pace for Wolves with that great intensity with which it had started. It is Brighton who now wants to have control of the ball and look to build from their own half and openings to the wings, to generate arrivals to see if they can find the first goal of the game.
Wolves find themselves dominating the match, showing great intensity and a fairly direct attack on the Brighton area which is suffering for now. The home side have already had a few chances, including from the corner kick that they have not yet managed to take advantage of so well.
Great chance that Wolves just had. From a free kick taken by Cunha, this one went to the near post where Guedes alone, hit the ball with his left foot but it ended up going over the goal. Brighton were saved from the first goal of the match.
The match had already had its first stoppage of play due to a foul by O'Riley on Joao Gomes. The referee did not want to show the yellow card to the Brighton player, but the Wolves player was left in a lot of pain and had to be attended to by the staff.
The game starts between Wolves and Brighton, expecting to see a game where Brighton is the team that is looking for a qualification to Europe while Wolves, already without chances of anything, will look to close this league well.
Both teams are ready to start this 36th day of the Premier League.
