After Brighton’s impressive win over Manchester United, Carlos Baleba’s contagious joy was captured on camera during the victory celebration.
The Seagulls dominated with a 3-1 triumph at Old Trafford, pushing them even further down the table in their continued struggles.
Yankuba Minteh, Kaoru Mitoma, and Georginio Rutter were the goal scorers for Fabian Hurzeler’s team, with Bruno Fernandes only managing to equalize with a penalty before the match slipped away from United.
Once the final whistle blew, the elation spilled over as Brighton players took their celebrations into the tunnel. Baleba, in particular, showcased his dance moves with ‘the griddy,’ much to the dismay of a defeated Fernandes in the background.
Despite being booked early in the game, Baleba’s presence was vital in securing the victory, and Hurzeler’s decision to keep him on the field paid off brilliantly.
Brighton’s win marked their third consecutive triumph at Old Trafford, a feat only matched by Manchester City. On the other hand, United’s form against Brighton has been dismal, with six losses in their last seven league encounters.
With this victory, Brighton climbs to ninth place in the table, just a few points away from a spot in the Champions League. Meanwhile, United languish in 13th place after suffering their tenth defeat of the season.
