Brighton put an end to their poor run of form with a professional 2-0 victory over Brentford on Saturday afternoon.
Arriving on the back of just one win in their last 13 Premier League matches, the Seagulls quickly settled at the Gtech Community Stadium, and they certainly deserved their lead after 30 minutes.
After Ferdi Kadioglu’s strike ricocheted back off the crossbar, it was Diego Gomez who was on hand to break Brighton’s duck with a cool finish back across Caoimhin Kelleher.
Danny Welbeck then all but put the game to bed on the stroke of half-time, pouncing on a catastrophic error from Nathan Collins to tuck home his ninth goal of the campaign.
