Thanks to a very pleasant draw (1-1) once morest Manchester City, with whom Kevin De Bruyne played 57th minutes, Brighton won the point on Wednesday that will ensure they play in the Europa League next season.
With 62 points, the Seagulls will finish 6th in the Premier League this season since they can neither catch Liverpool (5th with 66 pts), nor be caught by Aston Villa (58 pts) during the 38th and last day.
Taken over at the start of the season by Robert of Zerbi following the departure of Graham Potter in Chelsea, the club from the south of England, admirably managed for years, will discover Europe for the first time in its history.
And this epilogue is very deserved, since it was necessary to end the series of twelve victories that City had just aligned to obtain this qualification.
The men of Pep Guardiola are well aware that the preparation for the finals of the FA Cup (June 3) then of the Champions League (a week later), to try to equalize the hat-trick of United in 1999, begins now.
Just see the vice put by Erling Haaland to register the second goal of the Citizens, finally canceled for his shirt draw on Levi Colwill, ten minutes from the end, to be convinced.
Before that, the Norwegian striker had been very altruistic on the opener. Left in the back of the opposing defense and facing the goalkeeper, he had timed to serve Phil Foden at the conclusion (0-1, 28th).
