In a game that saw both managers get red cards, Brighton had a tough game against Nottingham Forest at the Amex Stadium.
Chris Wood gave Forest the lead from the penalty spot after a clumsy tackle from Carlos Baleba in the 13th minute. After a frustrating 40 minutes, Albion burst into life with two quick-fire goals from Jack Hinshelwood and Danny Welbeck.
However, Brighton failed to capitalise on early opportunities to extend their 2-1 lead and were pegged back in the second half.
Sosa levelled the score once again after a quick counter-attack in the 70th minute. As Brighton searched for a winner, both managers saw red for their reaction to a late challenge from Morgan Gibbs-White on Joao Pedro.
The Forest man received a second yellow and his marching orders in a dramatic finale.
These are the player ratings following Brighton’s 2-2 draw against Forest.
5. JP Van Hecke - 6
Was caught out at times in the first half. It seemed fairly easy for the away side to get in behind. However he produced a peach of a cross for Jack Hinshelwood to head the ball home for the Seagulls in the first half. Photo: JUSTIN TALLIS
6. J. Veltman - 6
Pushed up the wing near the end of the first half and created some good opportunities. Kept the Forest winger onside which allowed him to run through and pass to Sosa to make it 2-2. Photo: Alex Pantling
7. C. Baleba - 5
Baleba brought down Hudson-Odoi in the box, a really clumsy challenge by him and wasn’t necessary. Chris Wood scored the penalty in the 13th minute. He also got booked in the 24th minute. Was subbed off in the 61st minute. Photo: Steve Bardens
8. J. Hinshelwood - 8
Put his body on the line for the shirt and defended well when needed. Hinshelwood scored an absolute beauty of a header in the 41st minute, after an excellent cross by Van Hecke. Photo: Alex Pantling
