Premier, tough night for De Zerbi: almost brawl with Frank
De Zerbi cashed in his second defeat in three games
Poor start for Roberto De Zerbi at the helm of Brighton. The former Sassuolo and Shakhtar coach saw his Seagulls lose in the advance of the 11th round of the Premier League at Brentford.
The hosts won 2-0 thanks to a brace from Ivan Toney, who joined Harry Kane in second place in the scorers’ table at 8 goals. During the course of the match great tension on the field with the Brescia coach himself almost coming into contact with the opponents’ coach Frank and was barely separated.
For De Zerbi barely a point in three games and first criticism: after the 3-3 show with Liverpool, he ran into two consecutive stops with Tottenham and Brentford.
