PL2 report: Brighton 1 Chelsea 2

03 May 2019


Our development squad signed off the season with three points in Premier
League 2 after a spirited win away at Brighton.

Richard Nartey's second goal of the season put us in front as the defender
headed in Billy Gilmour's corner midway through the first half, though our
Achilles heel of conceding quickly after scoring returned as Ryan Longman
made it 1-1 three minutes later.


Yet Joe Edwards's side persevered against a team who have spent much of
the campaign fighting for the title and our lead was restored moments
before half-time when Billy Gilmour's corner was turned in by a defender.


The second period swung both ways and Chelsea had chances to extend their
lead when Gilmour fired over from close range. There was also work for
Jamie Cumming before the end as our keeper made a top-class save to keep
out a point-blank header and preserve the points.


There were five changes from our defeat in the UEFA Youth League final
four days previously as Ian Maatsen headed to the Under-17 European
Championship with Netherlands and Conor Gallagher missed out with injury,
while Karlo Ziger and Joseph Colley dropped to the bench.


Cumming returned in goal as Edwards started with a 4-4-2 system, with
Daishawn Redan and Charlie Brown spearheading the attack. In defence, it
was Tariq Lamptey, Nartey, Marc Guehi and Juan Castillo from right to
left. Further forward, Gilmour partnered captain Luke McCormick in central
midfield, while Tariq Uwakwe and trialist Darius Johnston started out wide.


It was the Seagulls who started quickest on a pleasant evening in Sussex,
settling early and threatening inside 10 minutes with a header from Jordan
Davies that dropped just wide. However the visitors, decked out all in
yellow, grew into the contest and created the best chances of the opening
quarter of the game.


Max Sanders defended well to thwart the advance of Johnson down the
Chelsea left before McCormick fired a left-footed strike narrowly
off-target. There was little defensive work Brighton could do moments
later when Guehi stepped in to steal possession and played a quick forward
pass to Redan in space. The Dutch striker drove forward and unleashed a
cracking shot from 25 yards that smacked against the crossbar.

The woodwork was unable to save the Seagulls after 24 minutes though as
Nartey's second goal of the season put Edwards's boys ahead. It was a
simple set-piece that did the damage, Gilmour's inswinging corner from the
left headed beyond Robert Sanchez, the stranded goalkeeper, by our
20-year-old centre-half.


Yet just like in Switzerland at the start of the week, the Blues conceded
swiftly after scoring. Soufyan Ahannach made progress down the right
channel and delivered a low cross that trickled all the way through to
Longman, who found the back of the net via the inside of the post.


Chelsea were looking for three points that would secure them a fifth-place
finish in the PL2 table but Guehi had to be brave to keep us level after
half hour, blocking a fierce effort from Davies on the edge of the box.


The latter part of the first period was an even affair with clear-cut
opportunities at a premium until the visitors restored their advantage two
minutes before the break. Another set-piece proved Brighton's undoing as
Gilmour delivered again from a corner and the ball ended up flying past
Sanchez, this time off the head of defender Ben Hall.

Our attempt to hold on to the lead for longer than a few minutes was
almost undone instantly as Archie Davies took aim at Cumming's goal,
though the full-back's shot was too high to trouble our keeper.


It was a bright restart from the young Blues and they were unlucky not to
extend their lead in the 10 minutes at the start of the second period.
Brown was kept out from close range after good work from Uwakwe before
Gilmour was handed a chance to add a goal to his pair of first-half
assists.


The Scotland Under-21 international latched on to Redan's cutback after
Brighton lost possession playing out but he was unable to keep his shot
down from 10 yards out.

Cumming preserved the points with one exceptional fingertip save


Down the other end, Cumming was made to work with increasing severity as
Brighton pushed forward for a second leveller. Our young keeper first
denied Longman with a smart low stop at the near post before he pulled off
an unbelievable reaction save to tip substitute Danny Cashman's
point-blank header over the bar. From the resulting corner, the visitors
somehow kept the ball out with a series of goal-line blocks following an
almighty scramble in the six-yard box.


That proved to be the final action of note as Edwards's side defended with
grit and maturity in holding on to the points and ending the season with a
positive result.

當我漫遊在斯坦弗森林時,我看見了雀爾西,米爾斯的女兒,在傍晚初升的明月中,
在泰晤士河旁一處林地空間上翩然舞蹈。所有痛苦的記憶都離開了我,我像落入迷離
幻境中一般,因為雀爾西伊露維塔兒女中最美的一位。她身上那襲藍色的衣裳宛如
萬里無雲的晴空,她灰色的眼睛像是傍晚群星閃爍的天空;她的斗篷上繡著金色的花
朵,她的頭髮漆黑如暮色中的陰影。她的榮光與美好,就像樹葉上的光芒,像是潺潺
流水,像是這迷離世界上方閃爍的繁星;她臉上有閃亮的光輝
