Manchester United duo Noussair Mazraoui and Amad Diallo created a piece of history in Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Red Devils looked set to leave the Amex Stadium with a point after Diallo cancelled out Danny Welbeck's 32nd-minute opener.

However, there was to be a late twist as Joao Pedro netted a 95th-minute winner to leave Man United with nothing to show for their efforts.

While the contest ended in disappointment, a fresh piece of Man United history was created by Diallo's equaliser on the hour mark.

Man United's history makers

Ivory Coast's Diallo levelled the scoreline with a deflected effort after latching onto a through ball from Morocco international Mazraoui.

As a result of the link, the strike represented the first time that Man United had registered a Premier League goal that was scored and assisted by African players.

Unfortunately for Diallo, his second Premier League goal was not enough to clinch a point as Pedro stole the headlines with a late winner.

Since the start of the 2022-23 season, Man United have now lost six Premier League matches from goals scored in the 90th minute or later - more than any other team within the same period.

More late heartbreak against Brighton

Man United may have felt a sense of Deja vu with Pedro's late strike, having conceded a losing goal in stoppage time in two of their last three away meetings against Brighton.

In May 2023, Argentine midfielder Alexis Mac Allister scored in the 99th minute to condemn Erik ten Hag's side to a 1-0 defeat at the Amex Stadium.

Brighton have now become the second team to score two or more stoppage-time winners against Man United in the Premier League.

Arsenal are the only other club that scored multiple 90th-minute winners in the Premier League, having previously achieved the feat on three occasions.

Man United will also be disappointed with the fact that they are now winless in the last 14 top-flight away games in which they have conceded first.

Since fighting back to beat Everton in October 2022, the Red Devils have gone on to draw two and lose 12 of the 14 away league games where they have conceded the opener. body check tags ::
