Potter proud of Brighton players after defeating Bournemouth

Brighton boss Graham Potter was proud of his players in victory over Bournemouth.

Alireza Jahanbakhsh and Aaron Mooy sealed a 2-0 win for the Seagulls.

“I am delighted with the result and the performance and proud of the players, in the way they went about the game," said Potter.

“There was some good quality at times and it's an important three points for everyone – the players and the supporters. We could have had another goal or two but in the end it's a win we are delighted with.

“We got the early goal but there were aspects of the first half I wasn't so happy with. We made a few adjustments and the response was really good.

“Even when Bournemouth made changes it didn't have too much effect, but at 1-0 you know that you need the second and I was pleased with how the players reacted to the disappointment of our disallowed VAR goal and kept going. We deserved to get the second one."
