FULL-TIME
Brighton 3-2 Man City

What a noise! Brighton fans are having a party. A famous win for the Seagulls. They've come from 2-0 behind to beat the champions.

FT: Brighton 3-2 Man City

Pep is not happy. Someone on the City bench has just squared up to Graham Potter. Meanwhile, Robert Sanchez has handed his gloves to a young boy in the crowd. Brighton's fans don't want to go home.

FT: Brighton 3-2 Man City

Incredible scenes. This is Brighton's final home game of the season. What a way to sign off. Home players are still on the pitch a full 10 minutes after full-time applauding the fans. Graham Potter has just thanked supporters over the speakers.

No-one has gone home! It's like a promotion party.

FT: Brighton 3-2 Man City

Brighton's players are still out on the pitch celebrating with their fans. Graham Potter is being interviewed by TV but is struggling to make himself heard.

He's asked a question but cannot hear and tells the interviewer "whatever you say, it's fine."

I'll laugh when they drop next season.
 
Commentary By Neil Leigh @mancity

'Tomorrow we will check on Ilkay Gundogan'
Pep on Ilkay Gundogan's injury:
"Tomorrow we will check it. The doctor is quite optimistic.
"Problem is he had a kick and was running in the second half with disturbance. I didn’t want to take a risk, that’s why I did the substitution."
 
Pep's verdict...👇
Pep on the Joao Cancelo red card:

"I didn’t watch it. I didn’t watch the action from Gundo. I watched it but didn’t see it.

"We have to be more careful and finish games 11 v11. 11v 10 v Brighton is difficult. We have to improve for the final, always we have to finish with 11.

"We have to try to do it."
