Yankuba Minteh played a pivotal role in Brighton’s impressive 3-1 comeback victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League.

Chelsea opened the scoring in the 24th minute through Enzo Fernández, but their momentum shifted after Trevoh Chalobah was shown a straight red card in the 53rd minute.

Minteh, operating from the left wing, dazzled throughout and delivered a superb outswinging cross that Danny Welbeck headed home to equalise in the 77th minute.

Brighton completed the turnaround in stoppage time, with De Cuyper making it 2-1 in the 90+2 minute before Welbeck struck again in the 90+10 to seal the win.

Minteh also completed the most dribbles in the match (2), underlining his influence in the comeback.
