Steve Sidwell scored a stunning 50-yard goal as Brighton beat Bristol City 2-0
at Ashton Gate in the Sky Bet Championship on Saturday evening.
Giacomo Bonaventura Italy Jersey . Jamie
Murphy doubled the lead with a deflected effort as Chris Hughtons men won their
fourth game in a row and made it four matches without conceding in a clash which
will be remembered for the audacious strike by Sidwell. The result keeps the
Seagulls in second place, four points behind Newcastle - who beat Cardiff 2-1
earlier in the day to maintain their lead at the top - and also means they are
unbeaten in their last 10 league games. It was a frantic opening five minutes to
the game, with Tammy Abraham posing the most danger with his pace and
movement and the on-loan Chelsea star played a wonderful reverse pass into the
path of Lee Tomlin, but he was unable to make the most of it and blasted wide.
Brightons Steve Sidwell scored from the halfway line to opening the scoring
against Bristol City Brighton eventually settled into the game, but it was still
the Robins controlling possession, former Middlesbrough star Gary ONeil
dictating proceedings in the middle of the park.But, when Korey Smith lost the
ball just near the halfway line, Sidwell produced a moment of magic to put
Brighton into a 13th-minute lead after winning back possession, he looked up and
hit a left-footed strike past a stranded Richard ODonnell, who was well of his
line for his first goal since April.The 33-year-old, formerly of Reading,
Chelsea and Aston Villa, then ran to the sidelines with his team-mates to
celebrate by holding up the shirt of the absent Anthony Knockaert, who was
grieving following the death of his father.Despite their bright start, Bristol
City were rocked by that goal and failed to recover sufficiently and several
minutes later found themselves two-down courtesy of a Murphy strike. Bristol
City manager Lee Johnson was critical of the way his side performed The Scotland
winger - who was causing all sorts of problems on the wing - cut in from the
left and after feigning to shoot, eventually did and found the bottom corner via
a deflection to give Brighton complete control.Knowing they needed to improve,
Bristol City came out, determined to reduce the deficit and get back into the
game, but Hordur Magnusson wasted an opportunity when he headed right into the
arms of David Stockdale. Down the other end, Brighton were still hoping to
increase their own advantage and Glenn Murray - who was leading the line well -
turned superbly before finding Jiri Skalak, who could only hit a stinging drive
to warm the palms of ODonnell.Veteran forward Aaron Wilbraham came on to offer
some much needed support to Abraham and there was a moment of worry for Bristol
City, when ONeil went down momentarily after taking a high boot to the jaw.
Brighton manager Chris Hughton praised the dominant nature of his sides victory
The introduction of Wilbraham was giving the Brighton defence something
different to think about and he should have been awarded a penalty after he was
clearly fouled by defender Shane Duffy, but the referee was not interested,
despite the strikers protests.Substitute Tomer Hemed ignored the calls of his
colleagues and blasted one final effort high into the stands, but it did not
matter as Brighton left with the victory and Bristol City slipped out of the
play-off places. Brighton vs A Villa November 18, 2016, 7:00pm Live on Get Sky
Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Following the match, Brighton boss Hughton told Sky
Sports that Sidwells strike had settled his sides nerves.It was one of those
strikes, where as soon as he hit it, I knew it was in. It was a difficult one
for the goalkeeper because it was unexpected and it was with his left foot.A
wonderful opener for us and as I said, any nerves we might have had, it calmed
us down.

Duralde and Hawks team physician Dr. Michael Bernot. KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The
Chicago White Sox had the right reliever on the mound with the game tied in the
eighth inning Saturday, especially when some miscommunication in the outfield
allowed the Royals to put a runner on third base with one out. Jesse Crain
calmly retired Salvador Perez on a popup and then struck out Lorenzo Cain to end
the threat, his 29th straight scoreless appearance -- and one that kept Chicago
in the game. "Luckily we had Jesse in there," White Sox manager Robin Ventura
said. "You make a mistake and you have a guy in there who can still get you out
of it." It wound up being a decisive moment when Alejandro De Aza drove in
Jordan Danks with a sacrifice fly in the top of the ninth, sending the White Sox
to a 3-2 victory over Kansas City. "I always have the feeling out there that Im
going to get through it no matter what," said Crain, who hasnt allowed a run
since April 12. "Just make the best pitch you can." Addison Reed handled a
perfect ninth for his 21st save. Mike Moustakas and Salvador Perez provided the
only runs for the slumbering Royals, who have dropped four straight since
climbing back to .500. "The difference in the game was that we both had the same
situation late -- had the winning run on third base -- and they executed and we
didnt," Royals manager Ned Yost said. Crain (2-1) may have made the clutch
pitches, but it took a bunch of critical at-bats for the White Sox to escape
with their second straight win in the three-game series. Dayan Viciedo led off
the ninth with a single off Aaron Crow (3-3), and Jeff Keppinger drew a walk to
reach base for the fourth time. Yost brought in closer Greg Holland, and he got
pinch-hitter Gordon Beckham to fly out to centre field. That allowed Danks, who
was pinch-running for Viciedo, to reach third base. De Aza laid off a couple of
pitches out of the strike zone, and then ripped a fly ball to right field that
was just deep enough to allow Danks to slide home ahead of the throw with the
go-ahead run. It was the 25th one-run game the White Sox have played this
season. "It seems like were always on the losing end of one-run games, so
fundamentally to get a sac fly to get the winning run, its a good
feeling,&qquot; Keppinger said.
Marco Parolo Jersey. . "Hopefully we can
build off it." The Royals struck first when Miguel Tejada, starting at second
base for the ninth time in his 16-year career, hit a two-out single in the
second inning. The 39-year-old then chugged all the way around on a double by
Moustakas to give Kansas City the early lead. It was the first RBI for Moustakas
since May 23. The White Sox threatened in the third when Keppinger singled and
Tyler Flowers walked to start the inning. Alex Rios hit a ball down the
right-field line that fell foul by just a couple of feet, and then he struck out
looking to keep the White Sox off the scoreboard. At least until the fourth.
Adam Dunn, who was hitting .186 coming into the game, walked leading off the
inning. Paul Konerko followed with a single up the middle, and Conor Gillaspies
slow roller up the middle was enough to drive in Dunn with the tying run. Wade
Davis nearly escaped the inning when he got Viciedo to ground into a double
play, but Keppinger delivered a single to right that gave the White Sox a 2-1
lead. Kansas City was poised for a big sixth inning, tying the game on a single
by Perez and putting runners on first and second with one out. But reliever Matt
Lindstrom entered the game and got Cain to ground into a double play on his
first pitch to end the threat. "Its baseball, man. Its a hard game," Moustakas
said. "Sometimes you get the job done, sometimes you dont get it done, and thats
just kind of how it turns out." White Sox starter Jose Quintana wound up going 5
1-3 innings, while Davis made it through seven innings on the warm afternoon. He
also gave up two runs for the Royals. "Tough loss," Davis said, "having a tie
game in the ninth inning." NOTES: The Royals (34-38) dropped to 11-33 when
scoring three runs or fewer. ... Keppinger started at 2B in place of Beckham and
finished 3 for 3. ... The White Sox secured their first series win since May
24-26 at Miami. ... The Royals activated OF Jarrod Dyson (right high ankle
