Manchester United 2-0 Brighton & Hove Albion: Ronaldo scores as Man Utd beat Brighton

Cristiano Ronaldo ended his six-game goal drought in sensational style as Manchester United beat 10-man Brighton at Old Trafford to move back into the Premier League's top-four.

Bruno Fernandes added a second as United broke from deep inside their own half in the final minute of injury-time.

After a tepid opening period, Ronaldo struck six minutes into the second half.

The Portuguese collected Scott McTominay's pass before edging right of the Brighton defence and, with barely any backlift, sent a low shot curling beyond a static Robert Sanchez.

Three minutes later, Brighton skipper Lewis Dunk was sent off after VAR sent referee Peter Bankes to review the defender's foul on Anthony Elanga.
