Hurzeler: 'Gross form is down to pre-season dedication'

A stunning strike from Diego Gomez, who unleashed a sublime left-footed volley into the top corner, set Brighton & Hove Albion on their way to victory against Brentford on Sunday.

The Bees were already trailing when Igor Thiago was sent off in the 23rd minute, with their fate effectively sealed before the break as Pascal Groß coolly converted from the penalty spot to make it 2-0.

A commanding first-half display proved enough to lift the hosts into second place in the Premier League, sealing six wins in their last seven matches to move within five points of leaders Arsenal.

Brentford, meanwhile, remain eighth—comfortably clear of danger, yet having claimed just one win in their last five league outings.
