Brighton vs Norwich result and final score as Neal Maupay misses penalty

With a first half penalty miss by Neal Maupay, Brighton and Norwich scored a goalless draw at Amex Stadium.

Goal shy hosts were generally dominant over the bottom opponents at the table, but saw their normal Achilles tendon reappear.

Maupay had a chance to break the deadlock in the 29th minute, but burned up before he wasted another late chance to ensure a second stalemate in the campaign between the teams.

Norwich’s quest to end a series of six consecutive losses was not helped by the problem of further injuries. Five players have been excluded from the last match. I lost 2-1 to my goal of downtime in Leeds three weeks ago.

The host was similarly poor, but the seagulls began brightly as the recalled Tariq Lamptey and Maupay tried their luck early in the upcoming signs.

It took 20 minutes for a valuable opportunity to emerge, but Maupay and Danny Welbeck also returned to the first XI and spared no effort following a decent build-up play between Leandro Trossard and Pascal Gross. did not.

The drilled strike-off target by Alexis Mac Allister further demonstrated Brighton’s intentions and should have taken the lead shortly before the 30-minute mark.

After Sam Byram processed Gross’s deep cross, referee Simon Hooper pointed to the spot, but the spot kick was wasted by Maupay.

The French forward greatly pleased the Canary Islands fans behind the goal after the pre-penalty words for visiting goalkeeper Tim Krul.

That meant waiting for the host to celebrate the goal at Amex Stadium, which hadn’t witnessed Graham Potter’s side score at home since January 18.

After Solly March’s smart free kick, Pierre Race Mellow made a penalty appeal awayside and Mac Allister could have a big curl before maintaining 0-0 on the break.

It was Norwich who started on the forefoot with the efforts of Milot Rashica, who was blocked by Joël Veltman, after referee Hooper was delayed in the start of the second half due to technical problems with earpieces.

With Trossard’s quick foot and distracted shots, normal service was immediately resumed, forcing the first corner of the three dangerous corners in a row.

Kururu made a great save from the beginning and rejected the Dutch international Beltman from a close-range header before Welbeck’s flick-on forced another corner, but Maupay found in the back post did this. Was only able to be fired on the side net.

Despite that disappointment, Norridge’s boss Dean Smith introduced teenager Jonathan Rowe, looking enough after an hour to bring his side to life.

Beltman reapproached Canarias captain Grant Hanley with a blocked header, while a rare venture at the other end was from Billy Gilmour’s free kick collected by Robert Sanchez at home goal. I saw Ben Gibson’s efforts.

Another great opportunity was presented to Maupay with 13 minutes remaining, but it was not taken again.

Trossard skipped from Mathias Normann on the right and cut back for Brighton’s top scorer, but his side footshot from 8 yards widened.

Maupay withdrew shortly thereafter, applauding and roaming the pitch, but in the 79th minute Rashika applied the necessary finish to Teemu Pukki’s missing center, but Norwich’s attackers volleyed.
