  • Crystal Palace, their apparent opponents, were mortified here by a group who had been lessened to 10 preceding the half-hour. Local crowd, unruly in their festivals, delighted in a night of finish prevalence.
  • It was the mercilessness of their play that blew the mind, the hosts everything Palace were most certainly not. Where Albion were clinical to thump the stuffing from their adversaries previously the break, scoring multiple times without answer, froze visiting players were unintentionally hindering each other’s shots in their urgency to gather a riposte well before the end.

  • Their ball possession meant nothing until yielding a reassurance culled so late as to have little effect. This was the stuff of bad dreams for those from south London.

  • The forward overwhelmed the withdrawing Tomkins who essentially could not keep up, cognizant as he was that he had quite recently been reserved, with Andone in the long run reducing inside the wheezing focus half and, by means of the safeguard’s incidental touch, hammering in a third.

  • For all the disappointment at the concession of the primary goal, there had been no genuine reason for the capituation which had followed. Hodgson’s players had been sent pull out ahead of schedule after the interim, squirming anxiously as they anticipated their adversaries.
  • A side who have been unpleasantly obtuse before goal all season were not really prone to make a big deal about an impression from that point, even in quest for pride. Alexander Sørloth was belatedly flung on to give something much the same as a point of convergence, yet it was Brighton, sorted out and quick on the counter-assault, who held all the nibble on the earn back the original investment with their number decreased.

  • Just when Wilfried Zaha wriggled clear of Balogun to anchor a punishment a short ways from time did the guests even allude to anchoring prize of their own.
