Neal Maupay's 95th minute goal saw Brighton pinch a point against fierce rivals Crystal Palace.

Palace thought they had secured three points after Wilfried Zaha scored from the penalty spot on the stroke of half-time.

But goalkeeper Vicente Guaita gifted the ball to Joel Veltman on the halfway line as time ran out.

The Dutch defender hit a long ball into the path of Maupay, who lobbed Guaita from the edge of the box.

A win would have saw Graham Potter's Seagulls move into top place on the Premier League.

Instead they sit in sixth place after six games with 13 points.

Patrick Vieira will be immensely frustrated not to have won the match as Palace blew several chances to increase their lead.

The south London club are three points above the relegation zone after one win and three draws in six games.
