Southampton striker Armando Broja: We deserved more from Brighton draw

Southampton striker Armando Broja admitted frustration after their 1-1 draw with Brighton.

The Chelsea loanee looked to have won the game with his first-half strike, only for Neal Maupay to equalise in the 98th minute to condemn Saints to back-to-back home draws.

Despite the late disappointment, Broja saw positives from the performance.

“It's a bit of a shame," he said. “I feel like we deserved to take three points, I thought we dominated the game but it's a punch in the stomach to concede like that in the last minute.

“We played really well today. We could've scored another couple goals. I could've scored another couple of chances, but on another day I know I can do better in those situations.

“We'll keep working as a team and keep developing. We have a good bunch of boys who are all working together, so hopefully we'll get some points on the board.

“We like to come as a team and press and be aggressive and we showed that from the first minute.

“We were up and they couldn't play football, so it was good to get a goal early on, but it's a big disappointment how the game ended.

“We can take positives from the game but should've had three points. We'll take the point and keep moving forward."
