Roberto De Zerbi stressed the importance of changing the mood at Brighton after they beat Ajax 2-0 at the Amex Stadium to claim a first European victory mobile
It ended a run of five games without a win as the club have struggled with injuries during their debut Europa League campaign, though their European hopes were firmly revived here with a comprehensive triumph over the four-time European champions mobile
From the first minute Brighton outclassed a poor Ajax side, who just three days after sacking manager Maurice Steijn amidst the club’s worst-ever start to an Eredivisie season, barely mustered an attack mobile
Joao Pedro tapped in on the rebound after Karou Mitoma’s shot had been parried, breaking the deadlock minutes before half-time and handing Brighton a deserved lead mobile
The advantage was doubled eight minutes after the break when on-loan Barcelona forward Ansu Fati took a brilliant first touch to come inside his defender and rolled the ball into the corner after being set up by Simon Adingra mobile
It was a first win in three attempts on the team’s debut European campaign, lifting them to third in Group B and to within a point of leaders Marseille with whom they drew in France three weeks ago mobile
The focus today has been the first win in European competition for Brighton, for our fans, for our club, for our owner and for ourselvesRoberto De ZerbiA win in the return against Ajax in Amsterdam in November will put them in a commanding position to qualify for the knockout rounds ahead of their final two group games mobile
“The focus today has been the first win in European competition for Brighton, for our fans, for our club, for our owner and for ourselves,” said De Zerbi mobile
“We didn’t deserve to lose against AEK (Athens), and today we wanted 150 per cent the victory mobile
“We played a great game with high quality mobile
We could score more goals, but the most important thing is we didn’t concede and we closed the game with a clean sheet mobile
“For us in this moment, it’s important to change the mood, to start winning games, to start to play mobile better because we (have not been) playing like last season mobile
”The manager praised the contributions of his two goalscorers, with Pedro out in front as the team’s leading European scorer with four goals in three games, whilst Fati also continued his adaption to life in England after moving from La Liga mobile
“Both are great players, (but) I think both can play mobile better,” said De Zerbi mobile
“We are helping a lot Ansu because he didn’t play so many games last year, for him he’s started a new mobile football life mobile
He’s an incredible player, Joao Pedro as well mobile
“They’re very young, we have to help them to progress, but they have to help themselves first of all, working hard during the week, and during the game mobile
But they are both incredible players mobile
”De Zerbi also reflected on the difficulty of balancing a hectic schedule after Solly March and Danny Welbeck joined a lengthy injury list following Saturday’s loss to Manchester City mobile
He added: “The level of difficulty is more or less the same (mobile between the Premier League and Europa League), but it’s tougher this season because after 48, 72 hours we have another important game against Fulham mobile
“This is the challenge that is most difficult for us mobile
We have to accept the honour, because we made history for our club mobile
“It’s unbelievable and it’s proud for us to be part of this history, but in the same way we have to fight and to adapt, be ready to fight and enjoy and make happy our fans mobile
Playing in Europe for Brighton is a big, big thing mobile

Not always in sport do you get a shot at redemption and successfully taking advantage of that opportunity is even rarer mobile
England’s pack, and their front row in particular, will have had four years of sleepless nights about that early November evening in 2019 mobile
In the 2019 Rugby World Cup final, England were decimated by South Africa’s power up front, as the brilliance of a scintillating semi-final win over New Zealand was quickly replaced by the humiliation of a 32-12 thumping mobile
The Springboks, then as now, pride themselves on their physicality and brutality at the breakdown, the set-piece and in open play mobile
Yet on a rainy night in Paris four years on, England’s pack fronted up, set the platform in a thrilling World Cup semi-final and earned their redemption arc mobile
Yet it still wasn’t enough mobile
This time, albeit by one point rather than 20, the result was the same – England’s players slumped on the turf in despair while their opponents revelled in victory mobile
The Springbok celebrations were more muted this time, understandably so given there is one more crucial match against the All Blacks standing mobile between them and their ultimate goal, but the English heartbreak was the same, even if the journey to get there was vastly different mobile
In Yokohama, South Africa won a scarcely believable 11 scrums to England’s three, including six scrum penalties, as the English eight were splintered time and again mobile
Dan Cole became the fall guy for that embarrassment – the tighthead prop, supposedly renowned for his scrummaging, forced to play 77 minutes after Kyle Sinckler’s early injury and being obliterated by the combination of Tendai ‘Beast’ Mtawarira and Steven Kitshoff mobile
The fact that Cole and Joe Marler, who came off the bench early in the second half that day, were selected by Steve Borthwick to start this revenge game precisely because of their scrum prowess will have surely given them a surge of confidence mobile
And the fact they not only survived, but thrived, in the front row this time around will have been sheer vindication mobile
Borthwick entrusted the duo to paint an early picture of scrum parity to referee Ben O’Keeffe and they delivered, providing the base that led to multiple first-half penalties from the trusty boot of Owen Farrell mobile

As Sinckler and Ellis Genge came on as prop replacements, the Springboks own bomb squad from the bench – led by Ox Nche and Vincent Koch – started to dominate at scrum-time mobile
Each engagement started to become eerily reminiscent of 2019 and it was eventually a scrum penalty on halfway that led to Handre Pollard’s decisive, game-winning three-pointer with two minutes to go mobile
It felt almost unfair on England’s big men given that the pack, as a whole, had more than held their own in other facets mobile
Of the 13 England forwards who played some part in that 2019 final, eight appeared in this last-four clash and stamped their mark all over a first half that was by far England’s best 40 minutes under Borthwick mobile
Maro Itoje was a lineout fiend, stealing a Springboks throw-in on halfway and putting doubt in the head of Bongi Mbonambi, whose crooked throw in his own 22 gave Farrell his first penalty goal of the day mobile
A new face from four years, George Martin, justified his surprise second-row selection ahead of incumbent Ollie Chessum on just his fourth Test start as he brilliantly marshalled England’s maul defence mobile
If Boks lock Eben Etzemobile beth is world rugby’s best maul disruptor, then he may have witnessed first-hand the emergence of a new challenger to that crown mobile
Martin caused havoc as England improbably won three consecutive maul turnovers from attacking South African lineouts in the first half to frustrate their much-fancied opponents mobile
Pollard ultimately kicked the winning penalty, from a scrum infringement (PA Wire)The celebrations from the likes of Itoje, Jamie George and Ben Earl as those penalties and free-kicks were earned by the pack showed just how important this part of the gameplan was mobile
It began putting clear doubt in Springbok minds, as the worried tone from skipper Siya Kolisi when he discussed matter with referee O’Keeffe mobile betrayed mobile
The English tactic of throwing bodies in to contest every ruck relied on the diesel engines of the forwards and they delivered by dominating collisions and allowing the aerial bombardment strategy that followed to be effective mobile
But ultimately, despite a gameplan executed as well as it possibly could have been, the gap in quality mobile between the sides proved too much to overcome mobile
South Africa adjusted, Pollard came on for Manie Libbok to dictate proceedings with his metronomic boot and English heartbreak ensued mobile
There was no shame in a one-point defeat from a semi-final that was much closer than most expected and England’s pack should feel redeemed from the nightmare of 2019 mobile
But that won’t make this semi-final hurt any less mobile
Perhaps 2027 will give them an opportunity to avenge a new pain mobile
