Brighton boss De Zerbi will take Burnley point

Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi will take their draw at Burnley.

The Seagulls drew 1-1 thanks to a howler from Burnley keeper Aro Muric.

De Zerbi said: "Fair result. We didn't deserve to win and we didn't deserve to lose. I think in this moment Brighton are like this. We are trying to play better, we are trying to win but it's clear we are spending a tough moment. We have a lot of injuries, we have many points to the European position.

"It has been a tough season for the players who played a lot of games - Gross, Van Hecke, Dunk, Welbeck and we are trying to give our best but at the moment it's tough.

"I can speak about our goal it was a short pass, too short pass from Carlos Baleba to the keeper. The keeper was maybe too deep and Baleba is playing very well but he's very young. We have to give him time to be better and play better. He is a good potential player, important for the future of the club and next season I think he can become better."
