Brighton defeats Manchester United 3-2 in Carabao Cup comeback
Brighton & Hove Albion secured a dramatic 3-2 comeback victory against Manchester United at Old Trafford to advance to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup. Manchester United appeared to be in control early in the match, taking a 2-0 lead within the first ten minutes through goals from Shea Lacey and Mason Mount.
However, Brighton responded before halftime with a goal from Charalambos Kostoulas. In the second half, Pascal Gross equalized in the 65th minute, and Maxim De Cuyper scored the winning goal in the 70th minute to complete the turnaround.
Manchester United manager Michael Carrick accepted full responsibility for the defeat, noting that the team lost control of the game following their strong start. The loss marks the second consecutive season that United has been eliminated in the third round of the competition.
