Brighton striker Neal Maupay: We deserved to win

Brighton striker Neal Maupay felt they deserved victory after their 1-1 draw with Burnley.

Neal Maupay's second goal of the campaign put Albion in front against the Clarets, but Jeff Hendrick's long-range effort levelled the contest in the first minute of stoppage time to momentarily silence the Amex.

Maupay said, “It was a good feeling [to score], but at the end we drew and didn't get the win, so I'm disappointed.

“Before the game we knew they would fight until the end, play long balls into the box and fight for the second balls.

“You've got to be switched on for 90 minutes, but we made a mistake and they scored. But this is the Premier League and everyone has quality, so you've got to fight until the end if you want to get a win.

"I felt that we were the better team, so it's a frustrating feeling for us."
