The race for Europe explained after latest results for Brighton, Sunderland, Brentford and Newcastle

Brighton, Brentford and Sunderland will take their race for Europe to the final match of the season.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin struck a stoppage-time winner as Leeds dealt Brighton’s hopes of European football next season a blow with a 1-0 win at Elland Road.

Calvert-Lewin pounced on a mistake by Brighton defender Paul van Hecke in the sixth minute of added time to snatch victory for Leeds, who climbed up to 13th place in the Premier League table.

Daniel Farke’s side extended their unbeaten top-flight run to eight matches and left Brighton’s hopes of European football for just the second time in their history resting on the final game of the season.

Leeds failed to muster an effort on target until Calvert-Lewin pounced to score his 14th league goal of the season, but turned in a disciplined display to keep Brighton at bay.

Isidor leaves it late

Late goals from Enzo Le Fee and Wilson Isidor kept alive Sunderland’s chances of European football as they came from behind to beat Everton 3-1 and ruin Toffees captain Seamus Coleman’s final appearance at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Frenchman Le Fee, who had previously scored at the ground in the Black Cats’ FA Cup victory in January, also provided the assist for Brian Brobbey as the visitors staged a second-half rally.

Bees snatch draw

Dango Ouattara’s late equaliser snatched a 2-2 draw for Brentford against Crystal Palace to keep their European dream alive.

Ouattara, who had earlier scored the luckiest goal of the season to cancel out Ismaila Sarr’s penalty, struck at the death after Adam Wharton had finally opened his goal account for Palace.

Permutations

Brighton's defeat means Brentford, Chelsea and Sunderland can all still overtake the seventh placed Seagulls.

A draw against Manchester United would see them finish above Sunderland, though – barring a huge goal-difference swing (16).

Chelsea have a game in hand on the Seagulls, but currently sit four points behind. Albion remain favourites to finish at least eighth, which would secure a Conference League spot. Seventh would be enough for a return to the Europa League.

But the defeat at Leeds means Albion are now very unlikely to finish sixth, which could have been enough for the Champions League.
