The resulting free kick from Alexis Mac Allister was destined for the postage stamp and forced an alert save from David De Gea. Just on the stroke of half-time United fashioned another decent chance where Fernandes again found himself with space in the box but his snapshot was driven just wide. Another Seagulls’ corner 55 minutes in led to another chance, Mitoma’s shot from the edge was blocked and fell to Enciso who let loose a wicked volley and called De Gea into stunning action.
The first of three added minutes saw another Seagulls’ corner go begging, this time it was March’s header over the bar as time petered out.Sancho then curled an enticing cross into Marcel Sabitzer but the substitute couldn’t turn his header goalwards eight minutes into extra time.
