Manchester United surrender a two-goal lead and crash out of the Carabao Cup at home to Brighton
Manchester United were booed off at Old Trafford after surrendering a 2-0 lead to lose 3-2 at home to Brighton in the Carabao Cup third round, intensifying pressure on manager Michael Carrick after a turbulent week that already included defeat to rivals Manchester City. The result follows a third-round run that also saw Aston Villa beat Coventry 3-1 with a Tammy Abraham brace and Everton edge Wolves 1-0 through Charly Alcaraz's late substitute strike. Brighton now advance to the fourth round alongside Liverpool, Aston Villa and Everton.
