How did Brighton get so far ahead so quickly? The club's extended Crystal Palace highlights lay out the sequence: a deflected free kick, Diego Gomez spotting a stranded goalkeeper, then Yasin Ayari arriving to finish a low cutback. Three goals, all inside the opening ten minutes.
As we reported here, Gomez's long-range chip supplied the spectacular moment. The longer edit gives it company, following Brighton through a 5-0 win at the Amex rather than stopping at the finish that has viewers discussing goal-of-the-season credentials.
The upload drew roughly 176,000 views in its first day, about fourteen times the club's usual start for regular videos. In the comments, the second goal remains a recurring subject, with viewers picking out Gomez's quick decision and technique. Others wrestle with choosing a single player of the match.
There is plenty beyond that opening burst. Ferdi Kadioglu forces an acrobatic save from Walter Benitez, Charalampos Kostoulas adds another after the break, and Jean-Philippe Mateta hits the crossbar during a rare Palace opening. Jack Hinshelwood supplies Brighton's final goal from a corner routine, helped by Luka Vuskovic's header.
The highlights are presented through a paid partnership. Alongside them, the club's separate Short titled "Ice cold Fabian 🥶❄️ #BHAFC #PremierLeague #PL #Hurzeler #Gomez" is also drawing an unusually fast start.
