Manchester United v Brighton live: Teenage substitute Lacey sees red as hosts crash out of FA Cup

Six Premier League sides were knocked out of the FA Cup at the first time of asking this weekend.

Nottingham Forest lost to Wrexham, Everton to Sunderland, holders Crystal Palace to Macclesfield, Bournemouth to Newcastle, Tottenham to Aston Villa and now Manchester United to Brighton.

Let’s hear from Diogo Dalot on TNT Sports now. He says: “We created enough to win the game to be honest.” Did they?!

“Then the red card gave us a disadvantage because we were on top of Brighton in the last moments. Overall very disappointed because we wanted to go through. All the lads kept trying to find spaces, like I said really disappointed because I think we deserved to win.”

On the managerial churn, he says it’s been “really difficult. It's always a period that you have to find ways to solve problems really quickly. We have to adapt and go again.”

Welbeck now pays a nice tribute to Darren Fletcher, who is his former teammate at United.

“It's incredible,” he says. “Credit to Fletch to see what he's done. He helped me massively as a young boy coming through at Man Utd, he was there for me every single day. I've got a lot of respect for him, it was nice to see him after the game.”

Welbeck is asked what his secret is to playing so well at the age of 35. He says: “I can't really give away the secret. If I say too much, the drugs test people will come for me! I've got good gamily genes, I eat well, prepare well for every single training session.

“When I was younger I played, left or right and No 10. Playing through that and going through injuries, it's hard to get into the rhythm. Touch wood, I haven't had many injuries at Brighton in last few years. I've got into a rhythm.”

Can he make it into the World Cup squad? He laughs and says: “For me, I'm just focusing on here at Brighton. I'm enjoying my time. Football can change at the click of your fingers. I'm just controlling what I can control.”

Now Brighton’s second goalscorer, Danny Welbeck, chats to TNT Sports. He says: “It's massive. To come here in the FA Cup, it's always a massive occasion. Delighted to get to the next round, there are a few boys who haven't been playing regularly, so to get the performance is huge. We're buzzing inside the dressing room.”

Asked about his goal, he says: “It was a good first touch, knew I had to get a clean strike on it. When the ball's coming across, you know where the defenders are, the second touch has to be a shot on goal. It was nice to get that clean connection on it.”

So United follow fellow Premier League side Crystal Palace out the FA Cup exit door.

Here are the round four teams so far:

Premier League (13): Arsenal, Aston Villa, Brentford, Brighton, Burnley, Chelsea, Fulham, Leeds, Man City, Newcastle, Sunderland, West Ham, Wolves

Championship (11): Birmingham, Bristol City, Ipswich, Hull, Leicester, Norwich, Oxford, Southampton, Stoke, West Brom, Wrexham

League One (4): Burton Albion, Mansfield Town, Port Vale, Wigan

League Two (1): Grimsby

National League North (1): Macclesfield

Two of Liverpool v Barnsley and Salford City v Swindon Town will join them.

Brajan Gruda tells TNT Sports: “I’m very happy – it’s the first time I have won at Old Trafford. We had a good day, we really enjoyed it and I can see the fans enjoyed it as well!

“Steeley dominated the game and we’re very happy to have him in goal.

“The belief is always there. Everyone believes in each other and we can achieve anything.”

This is the first time United have crashed out of both cups at the first hurdle since the 1981/82 season.

Boos ring out as the players head down the tunnel.

Another ‘Jim can’t fix this’ banner is held up by the remaining fans.

Silence at the final whistle and the fans are streaming out of Old Trafford.

Fernandes and Sesko look distraught.

United are out of both cups, aren’t in Europe, and their dismal season rolls on.
