Brighton and Hove Albion have been pegged back in their own half for long periods of this first Premier League encounter.
Gabriel Jesus has had the ball in the net for Manchester City but he was adjudged by the referee Michael Oliver to have used his hand in the process. It earned him a booking.

But Lewis Dunk left Ederson, on his Premiership debut, needing to make only a routine save.
