Manager Chris Wilder criticized Mason Holgate for his red card in Sheffield United’s 5-0 loss to Brighton. Holgate’s dangerous challenge led to his dismissal and Wilder stated that the defender “has to take responsibility” for the impact on the team’s game plan.
Holgate apologized to his teammates recognizing his mistake. Despite Ben Osborn’s disallowed goal and some defensive efforts, Brighton dominated with goals from Facundo Buonanotte, Danny Welbeck, an own goal by Jack Robinson and two from Simon Adingra.
Wilder acknowledged the setback but emphasized the need for a competitive approach. Brighton’s Roberto de Zerbi didn’t comment on the challenge and Anel Ahmedhodzic felt the red card wasn’t fair. The loss kept Sheffield United at the bottom of the table.
Brighton enjoyed a record away win with goals from various players marking their biggest top-flight away victory. The victory positions Brighton seventh in the league facing teams in the bottom half in upcoming matches.
