Murray praises Andone after 'brilliant' winner against Huddersfield
Andone replaced top-scorer Murray just before the hour and headed the only goal after 79 minutes from Anthony Knockaert's inch-perfect cross.
It was the Romanian international's fifth goal for Brighton and Murray said: "It was a brilliant header. He made the run into the so called corridor of opportunity and was in the right place at the right time.

The victory took Brighton five points clear of third-from-bottom Cardiff and Murray said: "We're not home and hosed yet.
"There's still a lot to play for and it could turn into as really good season for us with the FA Cup involved as well. That's what we'll be aiming to do."
On the match itself, Murray said: "It was a little nervy to begin with.

"You could possibly feel that in the first 45 but in the second half both teams I wouldn't say relaxed but got used to the game and it opened up. Thankfully we took control and got the goal."
