Yankuba Minteh scored a brace

In a remarkable week, Brighton first defeated Chelsea in the FA Cup Round of 16 on February 8th (2-1), and then proceeded to demolish them once again in the Premier League's Matchday 25. Not just a win, but a resounding victory. Yankuba Minteh scored a brace, while Kaoru Mitoma added another to seal the deal.

While Chelsea remains in 4th place in the Premier League standings for now, their grip on that position is slipping, with both Manchester City, Newcastle, and Bournemouth all in striking distance. Meanwhile, Brighton has climbed from 10th to 8th place.
