Diogo Dalot opened the scoring in the 73rd minute with Rasmus Højlund adding another before time to make it 0-2 for Manchester United against Brighton
If one manager’s future is settled, the other’s hangs in the balance. Roberto de Zerbi’s departure from Brighton appears a case of parting as friends before a relationship turns sour when the two parties desire different things.e and if their away fans were determined to enjoy themselves and celebrated Diogo Dalot and Rasmus Højlund’s goals like they scored cup-final winners, victory at Brighton is not nearly enough for Erik ten Hag.
That only four of the starting lineup at Brighton were not given their United bow by the Dutchman rather ate into a regular argument that he has not been able to build his own team. Lisandro Martínez’s first start since February did offer a reminder of the heavy casualty list at United this season. So did the continuation of the experiment with Casemiro as a centre-half alongside the Argentinian.
Such moves were made with Wembley in mind, where Ten Hag must pull off the most notable heist of his career by stopping Manchester City. Dalot’s cool finish, after Igor Julio’s handball had played the full-back onside came against the run of play, though by then the game had developed an end-of-season flavour. De Zerbi, by now smiling and joking with his coaches, could make his farewells. Ten Hag must wait to discover what’s next for him and United.
