Roberto De Zerbi thinks Brighton did not deserve to be defeated against Manchester United in the FA Cup semi-final and the Italian manager also believes that his side were superior again in the Premier League on Thursday night.
United visited the Amex Stadium to play Brighton less than two weeks after the sides met in the semi-finals of the FA Cup and Erik ten Hag, speaking ahead of the clash, agreed that result would serve as extra motivation for the opposition.
Brighton are enjoying a fine season with De Zerbi in charge and they looked sharp in the opening stages, although chances were being created at both ends and both sides would have been disappointed not to have scored at half-time.
