Brighton triumphed over Chelsea 3-0, with standout performances from Kaoru Mitoma and Yankuba Minteh.

Brighton & Hove Albion delivered a stunning performance, defeating Chelsea 3-0 in the Premier League on February 14, 2025. The match, held at Brighton`s home stadium, showcased the brilliance of Kaoru Mitoma, who opened the scoring with a remarkable individual effort in the 27th minute. Mitoma skillfully controlled a long ball from goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen, evaded the last defender, and struck a low shot past Chelsea`s goalkeeper Filip Jorgensen.

Mitoma continued to shine, playing a crucial role in Brighton`s second goal. He maneuvered through the Chelsea penalty area, unleashing a low shot that the defense failed to clear, allowing Yankuba Minteh to find the net. Minteh later secured his second goal and Brighton`s third in the 62nd minute, executing a clever one-two with Danny Welbeck before scoring from a tight angle.

This victory marked Brighton`s first home league win since November 9, propelling them two places up to eighth in the Premier League table. In contrast, Chelsea, despite dominating possession with 70%, failed to register a single shot on target, suffering their third loss in four matches. Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca lamented the performance as the worst since his arrival, while Brighton`s goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen praised the team`s effort, stating, "Three goals, a clean sheet, what more can you ask for?"
