Brighton record a 1-0 win over Manchester City, extending the visitors’ strong run and bringing them within two points of the Premier League leaders. All three outlets that describe the match state that it marks Brighton’s second straight Premier League defeat for City, and that Brighton end a long wait for an away win against City.
In the same round of fixtures, Chelsea beat Manchester United, with the match described as involving a 10-man United side. Jamaica Observer, The Hindu, NDTV and Vanguard all link the Chelsea win to United’s difficult spell under Michael Carrick, framing it as another damaging result for him. The Hindu adds that Brighton’s victory strengthens their hopes of challenging for the title.
