Ghanaian defender Tariq Lamptey, who recently returned from an injury that kept him out of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d'Ivoire, played a crucial role in Brighton's win over Palace as he provided an assist from left back.

Brighton and Hove Albion showcased a strong recovery as they secured a notable victory against Crystal Palace, bouncing back from their previous defeat to Luton Town.

Under the management of Roberto De Zerbi, Lamptey, known for his efficiency this season, was handed a starting role on the left side. In the 33rd minute, his well-executed cross found Jack Hinshelwood, doubling Brighton's lead after Lewis Dunk's earlier goal from a Pascal Gross cross.

The scoring continued with Facundo Buonanotte adding Brighton's third just a minute after Hinshelwood's goal.

Although Crystal Palace's Jean Phillipe Mateta pulled one back in the second half with an assist from Joachim Andersen, Brighton's Joao Pedro restored the three-goal lead, securing the win.

Ghanaian compatriots Jeffrey Schlupp and Jordan Ayew were also active for Crystal Palace, with Ayew playing the entire duration of the match.

The victory highlighted Brighton's resilience and Lamptey's significant contribution to the team's success.
