Brighton 0-2 Manchester United: Erik ten Hag's side record worst Premier League finish despite victory

Manchester United recorded their worst finishing position in Premier League history despite ruining Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi's final match with a 2-0 victory. United finished outside of the European places in eighth, their lowest position since 1990, but can still qualify for the Europa League should they beat champions Manchester City in the FA Cup final on Saturday. Newcastle won 4-2 at Brentford to secure seventh on goal difference, rendering United's result meaningless in the race for the top seven as they delivered a typically mixed performance on the south coast. De Zerbi was given a rousing ovation before and after the match which Brighton dominated for an hour, missing chance after chance, with their best falling to Joao Pedro in the second half who saw his effort cleared off the line by Casemiro.
