It has already been eliminated from the Carabao Cup, and in the English Premier League (EPL), I am in fourth place with a 13-point gap with the leader Liverpool, making it difficult to see a domestic tournament win this season.
Brighton lost the lead in the 5th minute after Brighton goalkeeper Mart Perbruggen's ill-fated own goal in the 5th minute, Giorgino in the 12th minute Luther's equalizer brought the game back to square one.

The goal was recorded as the winning goal. Mitoma, who has played for Brighton since 2021, has scored his sixth goal of the season (five league goals).

Mitoma, who caught the ball at the left point in the opponent's box, connected the pass to Tariq Lampty behind him.
Lampty's shot from his side to the middle hit the opponent's defensive leg and the ball that bounced off hit Lampty's arm again.
Later, Luther, who received the ball that flowed out of the mix, stabbed a lobbing pass to Mitoma, and another situation occurred in which Mitoma suspected handball in the process of trapping the high ball.
Since the FA Cup is operated from the fifth round (the round of 16), Mitoma's goal was recognized as a score without video review.
After losing points, Chelsea tried to turn the tables by putting in Enzo Maresca and Noni Madueke, but it was not easy.

The FA Cup will be held in the round of 16 draw on the 11th.
