Brajan Gruda came off the bench to score an 89th-minute goal to give Brighton their first win of the Premier League season, while condemning Manchester City to back-to-back defeats.

The German attacking midfielder finished calmly to seal a comeback success after he rounded James Trafford, who had made a brilliant save to deny Jan Paul van Hecke moments earlier.

City had taken a first-half lead as Erling Haaland marked his 100th Premier League appearance with his 88th goal for Pep Guardiola`s side.

But after a Matheus Nunes handball inside the box, James Milner converted from the penalty spot against his former club to become the Premier League`s second oldest scorer - behind Teddy Sheringham - at the age of 39 years and 239 days.

It was Milner`s first Brighton goal and first in the league since Boxing Day, 2019, when he scored in Liverpool 4-0 win against Leicester City - also from the penalty spot.

The Seagulls continued to threaten after the 67th-minute equaliser and snatched victory when Gruda broke clear and showed composure to finish.

City, who lost 2-0 at home to Spurs last weekend, have only three points from as many games, while Brighton have four following this dramatic success.
