Brighton Stun Chelsea 2-1 in FA Cup Comeback – Mitoma’s Decisive Goal Sends Seagulls to Fifth Round

Brighton overturned an early Chelsea lead to win 2-1 in the FA Cup fourth round at the Amex Stadium on February 8, 2025. A goalkeeper mix‑up gifted the Blues the opening goal, but the Seagulls equalised before halftime. Japanese winger Kaoru Mitoma netted the winner in the second half. The triumph is especially sweet after Graham Potter’s recent move to Chelsea. Brighton now advance to the fifth round while Chelsea’s cup hopes end.
