With United trailing by two goals, ten Hag made a double substitution just after the hour mark.
Casemiro was replaced by youngster Hannibal Mejbri with Anthony Martial brought on for the Denmark international. Hojlund had been perhaps United’s best player during a frustrating afternoon at home, seeing his first goal for the club chalked off with Marcus Rashford’s cross judged to have gone out of play before finding the striker.
The £72million signing from Atalanta was starting his first game for the club having come off the bench for his debut against Arsenal prior to the international break. Former United striker Danny Welbeck opened the scoring for Brighton after 20 minutes with Pascal Gross doubling their lead eight minutes into the second-half.Having come off the bench, Mejbri scored his first goal for the club to pull one back.
