Balogun happy with dream Premier League debut against Manchester United

Leon Balogun has thanked Brighton after a perfect Premier League debut against Manchester United on Sunday.

The Super Eagles started as Chris Hughton’s men defeated Red Devils 3-2.

Glenn Murray flicked in the opener before Shane Duffy stroked home two minutes later.

Romelu Lukaku halved the deficit 11 minutes before the break, rising unmarked to nod in Luke Shaw’s ball, but Pascal Gross converted a penalty after a foul by Eric Bailly.

Pogba also scored from the spot – deep in second-half stoppage time – but it was not enough to deny Brighton a famous win.

Balogun took to Twitter on Monday to celebrate the victory.

Balogun will hope his fine display will keep him in the team against Liverpool on Saturday.
