Brighton secured a comfortable three points against Premier League strugglers Wolves, triumphing 3-0 at the Amex Stadium. The Seagulls continue their push for sixth place, now sitting just two points adrift, after Bournemouth also claimed an away victory against Fulham.
Fabian Hürzeler's side, who saw their manager sign a new contract just two days prior, effectively sealed the win within the opening five minutes, racing to a 2-0 lead. Jack Hinshelwood opened the scoring after just 38 seconds, heading home a cross from De Cuyper. In the fifth minute, Lewis Dunk doubled the advantage, also with a header, this time from a corner delivered by De Cuyper.
Mitoma and Welbeck both missed opportunities to extend Brighton's lead before halftime. Early in the second half, the visitors had a chance to get back into the game, but shots from Mosquera and Hwang both struck the woodwork.
In the 86th minute, Yankuba Minteh sealed the final scoreline, capitalizing on a scramble in the visitors' penalty area and firing into the near post for a decisive 3-0. The Gambian winger then missed another good chance before the final whistle.
