Though it came very late in the second half, Joao Pedro’s spot-kick looked to have earned Brighton and Hove Albion a vital point against Marseille in the Europa League.
The French giants had raced into a two-goal first-half lead, both goals coming inside two minutes.
The Seagulls managed to stop the rot and managed to get themselves back into the game thanks to a second-half strike from Pascal Gross.
With time running out, Joao Pedro was the calmest man on the pitch to equalise for Roberto De Zerbi’s team.
