Omobamidele own goal gives Brighton the win relief they need against Forest
It is rare these days to see Brighton whittling away at the remaining injury time by hogging possession near the corner flag. Slender victories, achieved via the helping head of an opponent, can hardly be considered “on brand”. But winning ugly – as they did courtesy of Andrew Omobamidele’s own goal – is far better than not winning at all.
And so, in a week where Roberto De Zerbi’s side saw their current continental campaign almost certainly conclude, defeating Nottingham Forest brought some most welcome home comfort.
