There is no end to the bad performances of Manchester United, who play desperately from round to round - the "devils" lost at home to Brighton (22:3) today in the 1nd round of the Premier League, and after today's round they remain in the lower part of the table.

On the other hand, Brighton recorded their sixth win in their last seven matches against United today, and celebrated their third consecutive victory at Old Trafford.

United's nightmare afternoon was announced in the fifth minute - Baleba sent a long ball to Mitoma, who assisted Minte, and the Gambian footballer scored.

United's response came in the 23rd minute, when Fernandes equalised from the penalty spot, before the second half was a disaster. Brighton scored in the 53rd minute, but Joao Pedro's goal was disallowed for a foul, and in the 60th minute, Mitoma followed up a cross and converted an assist from Minte.

The final score was set by Ruter after a desperate reaction from Onana.

Nottingham Forest and Everton recorded victories. Forest defeated Southampton 3:2 at home, while the "caramels" were better than Tottenham at "Goodison" - 3:2.

The scorers for Nottingham were Anderson, Hudson-Odoi and Wood. On the other side, Bednarek and Onuahu scored.

Everton's triumph over Tottenham came thanks to Calvert-Lewin, Ndiaye and Gray, who scored an own goal. The scorers for Spurs were Kulusevski and Richarlison.
