Brighton goalscorer Joao Pedro has been speaking to Sky Sports: "We started the game well. We could have won, but we got a point. We need to look forward.

"We conceded in the first half but knew that we could win this game. We tried to score at the beginning of the second half. We wanted to win."

On the penalty that he won: "I tried to control the ball and then [Saliba] hit me. It is good that I scored. I always try to be positive with goals and assists. I like the feeling [of scoring] and hopefully I will score more."
