​Hughton pleased with Brighton performance against Atletico Madrid

Published on: 07 August 2017

Brighton boss Chris Hughton was delighted to see his side to put a brave front in the friendly against La Liga giants Atletico Madrid at Amex Stadium.

The Seagulls, who are looking forward to their debut season in Premier League, equalised twice in the game before losing out to Lucas Hernandez's last-minute winner in the 3-2 result.

Following the game, Hughton said: "It was a really good game for us. Certainly, going into our game against Manchester City next week; we couldn't have had a more similar test.

"I'm really pleased that Atletico Madrid agreed to come and I'd like to think that they got some good value from being here as well.

"Overall, I was happy with what I saw from us. But what Atletico showed was the quality that they've got on the ball, right throughout the pitch."
