Brighton & Hove Albion endured a challenging month of April, failing to secure a single victory in all competitions. The Seagulls struggled to find the back of the net, managing just one goal, which ironically came from an own goal by Burnley’s Arijanet Muric. The month began with a defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, followed by losses to Manchester City and Bournemouth.

In their match against Burnley, Brighton fell behind before Muric’s accidental own goal provided their only goal of the month. Fans were quick to highlight this statistic, with some humorously suggesting that Muric had won Brighton’s “goal of the month” award. Defender Adam Webster acknowledged the team’s struggles in front of goal, noting that while they were creating chances, they were not converting them into goals.

Webster expressed frustration at the lack of luck and clear-cut opportunities, emphasizing the importance of scoring to secure wins. Brighton’s poor form in April has seen them slip in the Premier League table. Webster emphasized the need to finish the season strongly, aiming to improve their performances and results in the remaining matches.
