Brighton beats 10-man Brentford to go second in Premier League
According to the Guardian, Brighton continued their impressive 2026 Premier League campaign by defeating Brentford at the Amex Stadium. Diego Gómez scored a stunning goal, and Pascal Gross added a second from the penalty spot. Brentford's task became significantly harder after Igor Thiago was sent off following a VAR review for violent conduct. With this victory, Fabian Hurzeler's Brighton side has established itself as the primary challenger to Arsenal at the top of the table.
