    Evan Ferguson (40 mins)

    Great goal - but will it stand?

    Kaoru Mitoma breaks down the left after winning possession off Romeo Lavia before playing a lovely pass to Evan Ferguson, who slots in his second.

    VAR takes a look... No foul! The Southampton players protest but the decision has been made.

    Brighton 1-0 Southampton

    Lyanco is back on the field but doesn't appear completely comfortable.

    Brighton continue to press on in search of a second when play resumes, but the attack breaks down when Romeo Lavia takes charge at the back for Southampton and earns a free-kick.

    Well done this season to Brighton. As a Palace fan it's hard to say this but you have been the team of the season. "Hopefully" European football next season won't put the strain on you that it's put on West Ham the last couple of years.

    Jay MK

    Cracking goal from that boy Ferguson really going to be a bright talent.

    Kurt Zouma has not re-appeared for the second half.

    The West Ham defender has struggled with injuries this season and with Nayef Aguerd not involved today, manager David Moyes will not be taking any chances with the former Chelsea man.

    It is two-and-a-half weeks to the Europa Conference League final against Fiorentina in Prague.

  6. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:36 British Summer Time 21 May 2023

    Brighton 1-0 Southampton

    Carlos Alcaraz earns a yellow card for a late challenge. Frustration.

    Lyanco, who appeared to have a slight issue earlier in the match, is down in his own penalty box now and needs treatment.

    Ref Zahi 1411. If Kane had stayed at Leicester City in 2013 (on loan) he"d have a Prem title and FA Cup winners medal on his CV.

    Jacques

    RE: Zahi 14:11. I've no doubt Kane would have won trophies if hed moved to a bigger club earlier but I dont know about the ballon D'or's. He would have still been competing for that against Messi and Ronaldo in thier prime. Also both of those players won ballon D'or's due to success with thier national team. No matter Kanes club hed still have to play for England...

    That's Evan Ferguson's fifth Premier League goal of the season.

    If it stays like this, Brighton would be all but assured of a Europa League place, given their superior goal difference over seventh-placed Aston Villa. A place in Europe would be guaranteed.

    Jonathan Meres: As a Forest fan it’s very nice that, for the first time since the start of the season, I genuinely couldn’t care less who wins today.

    Cate: LEEDS UNITED have LITERALLY 45 minutes to save their Premier League status. We NEED a 2nd half WINNER and we NEED to DEFEND!! End of!

    It's difficult to rule out an Allardyce side from staying up, but if Leeds go down that'll be two relegations on the trot for Sam. Where does his career do from there?

    Karl Chads

    I think West Ham should go for the win to keep the winning mentality ahead of a Conference League Final. Leeds anyway as bad as Everton and Leicester this season. Nothing to choose among them.

    Sam Allardyce's response to that last Leeds attack said it all.

    As Jack Harrison dragged his shot wide, he turned and flung his arms into the air in exasperation.

    Leeds have got themselves into dangerous positions so many times and have failed to execute.

    They need to be sharper around the penalty area.

    Pascal Gross is seeing a lot of the ball in advanced positions but a couple of times now he's not been accurate enough with the final ball into the box.

    Anyway, as I was about to say, Southampton, generally, are playing some nice stuff at the Amex. They settle down again after that defensive mix-up.

    Brighton are dominating the chances but it's been a frustrating first 25 minutes for their front players - especially Mitoma.

    Here's how things look at the bottom of the table and at the moment the weekend winners are Everton. If West Ham-Leeds stays the same then the Toffees stay out of the drop zone.

    But if Leicester beat Newcastle on Monday night, they will be the ones with survival in their own hands going into the final match.

    Brighton 0-0 Southampton

    Well, I was just about to write that Southampton had settled into this after weathering a fair amount of Brighton pressure in the early stages.

    But the Saints get a bit carried away in knocking the ball around at the back and a loose pass from Alex McCarthy is picked up by Kaoru Mitoma, who somehow fails to punish the visitors.

    The winger lifts the ball over McCarthy, only to see his shot come back off the post, allowing McCarthy to gather.

    Stephen Kelly
    Former Tottenham defender on BBC Radio 5 Live

    It's tough to know how this will play out because West Ham didn't look at it until they scored and then Leeds ended the first half as the stronger of the two teams.

    If Leeds really get after them in the second half then there's a good chance they can win this. The likes of Zouma and Ogbonna just haven't been on it today.

  20. HALF-TIMEpublished at 14:20 British Summer Time 21 May 2023

    West Ham 1-1 Leeds

    Lucas Paqueta then volleys just over for West Ham and that's the last action of the half.

    All square but the win is there for Leeds if they can just show a bit more conviction in the final third.
