Peter Gwargis scored as Brighton & Hove Albion dented 10-man Arsenal's hopes of winning Premier League 2 Division 1.

Gwargis, 19, had rescued a point against Wolverhampton Wanderers earlier in the week and the Swedish midfielder struck a powerful long-range finish past goalkeeper Matt Macey on 53 minutes. 

Even though Gunners captain Robbie Burton was sent off for a second bookable offence on the hour, they nearly equalised in stoppage time when James Olayinka headed against the crossbar.

The result means Arsenal stay second, level on points with leaders Chelsea having played two matches more. Brighton are four points behind in fifth.
