Julio Enciso's equalizer secures Brighton a draw against Manchester City
Posted : 25 May 2023
Brighton's Julio Enciso brilliantly equalised as the Seagulls held champions Manchester City to a thrilling draw to secure their place in the Europa League.
Goalkeeper Jason Steele was left helpless by Erling Haaland's pass, allowing Phil Foden to slip the ball past Brighton defender Jan Paul van Hecke on the goalline and give Treble-chasing City the lead.
Enciso, a 19-year-old Brighton player, equalised rightfully with a magnificent 25-yard shot that arrowed into the top corner.
As Brighton hung on for a draw that ended City's 12-game winning streak in the Premier League, Haaland had a goal disallowed for pulling on his defender in the 79th minute after a video assistance referee review.
The fought-for point for Brighton guarantees a top-six finish and a spot in the Europa League group stage for the following year.
