There was controversy at the Amex Stadium on Saturday.

Relegation-threatened Brighton beat Arsenal 2-1 on Saturday following a 95th minute goal from Neal Maupay.

In an historic event, the match between Brighton & Hove Albion and Arsenal was the first to be broadcast live on television at 3pm on a Saturday.

And there was drama on the pitch with Arsenal suffering yet another injury.

Pablo Mari and Granit Xhaka were both forced off during the Gunners’ first outing since March against Manchester City on Wednesday night.

And there was worse news on Saturday when goalkeeper Bernd Leno had to be stretchered off following a collision with Seagulls striker Neal Maupay.

Leno was in agony, although he did have words with Maupay as he was taken off the pitch just before half-time

But what happened soon after half-time got the Gunners fans’ backs up just as much, if not more than that incident itself.

Alexandre Lacazette made a late sliding challenge on Brighton keeper Mat Ryan and was booked.

Maupay did not get a booking for the challenge that caused Leno to be stretchered off.

 

The result sees Arsenal stay two point behind Tottenham while Brighton stay in 15th position, four points ahead of the relegation zone.
