The Albion's penultimate away day of the season is in the Midlands at Molyneux to face Inform Wolves.
Handball appeals waved away by Michael Oliver. Van Gekker sweeps it out impeccably to Minte.
What a delicious ball into the box and neither Welbeck nor O'Reilly could get on the end of it.
That was really threatening. Down the left hand side Van Gekker's pass was perfect.
Minte's was an exceptional cross. He was begging to be put in the back of the net.
Now Abe Nouri who's been very dangerous this season, he's fouled.
Matheus Cunha is over it and he scoops it and it's over the bar.
Well that was all too easy. Guedes sneaking in and flicking it over the crossbar unmarked.
Down the line it goes and Abe Nouri looking to get beyond Belieber. Belieber chasing him
but Abe Nouri cuts it back. Chance here for Wolves. A poor finish in truth.
It's at the heart of it again. Abe Nouri with a typical burst from left wing back and Guedes
just couldn't provide any kind of finish. Keeping the ball moving here is Lamptey.
Belieber absolutely hounded but protected the ball really well. Brighton get on with it again
looking to keep the tempo high. Lamptey and his cross is a good one and it should be finished.
It's finished. Danny Welbeck slides in to give Brighton the lead. Although Wolves fans
are now cheering. I think there's been a flag. VAR will have to sort this one out.
Danny Welbeck wearing the captain's armband today.
Leading from the front thinks he scored the opener. He wasn't offside there
and there was no touch from Yancuba Minte. He whacks a finger at the assistant.
Yancuba Minte as soon as it went in gesticulated furiously at the assistant to say
I haven't touched it. It's a lengthy check. Fabian Herzler is feeling the frustration
and offside confirmed. No goal. Danny Welbeck thought he had given his side the lead
but it's been chalked off. Oh one back by Vifa. Vifa's in. He's gone down. Penalty.
Mateus Cunha cannot believe it. Michael Oliver reaches for a yellow card.
Brighton might protest that it's a clear goal scoring opportunity and he should be sent off
but it is outstanding work from Mats Vifa. Not sure Cunha knew he was there. Mats Vifa pinched it
cleanly and then as he looks to get on the end of it he is felled by Cunha. Takes a tumble.
Clear penalty. Danny Welbeck has the ball in his hands and has a big opportunity to score
from the spot. Fabian Herzler we don't know what he's saying but might be making the point that
Mateus Cunha should be off. Welbeck very focused indeed. Short run up. Welbeck strokes it in.
Brighton do have their lead now. Danny Welbeck leading from the front to give Albi in the lead
and it is richly richly deserved. Well Danny Welbeck has obviously been keeping tabs on
Pedro's penalties. That was very very calmly done. Sends the keeper the wrong way and rolls
it with precision. Let the celebrations commence. Big goal for Brighton. He was furious now he's
smiling. Fabian Herzler delighted with what his side have done in the opening half an hour
here at Molyneux. Well won back by Doherty. Looks into the middle. Van Hecke there again.
Goal kick the end result. Real threat from Wolves. What a performance so far from Van Hecke.
He has stopped everything that has come into the Albion penalty area. That's a brilliant clearance.
Really dangerous ball from Doherty. Cunha waiting. Van Hecke there. Frustration so far for
Vitor Pereira. And now Tarek Lamptey also goes down. Michael Oliver doesn't want to hear of it.
He wants play to continue. Lamptey's down. Totti's up. Wolves have it. Cunha has it.
And Cunha strikes it for Bruggen with a smart save. Low to his left.
That was very neat football. 8 Nuri involved. Cunha got hold of that one and it was heading in
for Bruggen with an excellent stop. He slips as he hits it but caught it fiercely.
And there's Mark McGee, former Albion manager, former Wolves manager.
Checking out both of his former sides. Oh and 8 Nuri has taken that perfectly.
And for Bruggen is there. Great stop and how they kept that out. Clear their lines as Gruda
picks his way through and plays it to Bolivar. Estepinian shrugs off his man.
Minta is opened up here. Gruda, Gruda. Might go all the way. Gruda got plenty of power
but gets right underneath it. Fabian Herzog's delighted with the intent there from Brian
Gruda. Yet to score for the club. Right into the stands there. This was the big Wolves chance.
Sarabia caresses it into 8 Nuri. 8 Nuri looking for Strand Larsson. Wonderful,
wonderful work by for Bruggen. Odingra couldn't get back to 8 Nuri but the flick away and the
cover from Estepinian. Excellent. Now Strand Larsson brings it down beautifully. 8 Nuri.
Oh what are they doing in there? And over the bar in the end. Gomez with a challenge. Belgaard
over the bar. They almost made a mess of it. The Seagulls. 8 Nuri giving it away. Gomez making
the challenge on Munezzi. And Belgaard whips it over the bar. Really should have done better.
Breitner glad he didn't. Vifa wins the header. Odingra. Can Breitner put this game to bed?
Odingra through for Gruda. Gruda. Delicate. It's decisive and Albion have their second.
It means so much to Brian Gruda. His first in blue and white is Albion's second of the afternoon.
And it's hugely important in deciding the destination of the three points this afternoon.
It looks like they're heading back to the south coast with Brighton. An emotional celebration
from Brian Gruda who's had to be patient for his chances in the first team. But he is capable
of technical brilliance like this. That is a deft finish. Albion needed him to be composed
and he was all that and more with Jose Sarr rushing out to meet him. Brian Gruda keeps a cool head
and what a way to open your account for the Albion.
Vital goal and brilliantly finished by Brian Gruda. And that's how much it means to him.
He looks up at the heavens and sinks to his knees.
