BRIGHTON: Kaoru Mitoma sealed Brighton & Hove Albion’s 2-1 comeback home victory over Premier League rivals Chelsea to send the south- coast club into the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday.
Brighton keeper Bart Verbruggen gifted Chelsea a fifth-minute lead when he bundled a Cole Palmer cross into his own net.
The hosts were not behind for long, however, as Georginio Rutter equalised seven minutes later with a glancing header.
Brighton were the better side after the break and Japanese winger Mitoma sealed the tie in the 57th minute with a neat flicked finish over Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez.
