Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi said plenty of players in his squad were capable of scoring goals like Kaoru Mitoma’s stunning effort in his side’s 4-1 Premier League win at Wolves. The Seagulls sit top of the table after a clinical display at Molineux, with Japan winger Mitoma, Pervis Estupinan and Solly March’s double making it eight goals in two league matches. De Zerbi, who dedicated his side’s win to former Italian coach Carlo Mazzone – who died on Saturday aged 86 – said he was not surprised by Mitoma’s mesmeric run and finish, which gave his side a slender half-time lead. The Italian head coach said: “Mitoma is a top player and when you have a top player you can expect goals like today. “We have not only Mitoma. We have Joao Pedro, (Julio) Enciso, (Danny) Welbeck, (Adam) Lallana, (Evan) Ferguson, (Simon) Adingra, (Solly) March, (Facundo) Buonanotte. I think we are in a very good condition in attack.” Winger March converted two crosses by Paraguayan teenager Julio Enciso after lung-busting runs into the box and now has three goals in two games. De Zerbi said: “I spoke with him (March) last season and the beginning of this season. I want him to score more goals. For him and for us. “If the winger can score a lot of goals, if you check the teams at the top of the table anywhere, the big teams, they have wingers able to score 10 or 15 goals.” Brighton put Wolves to the sword with three goals in nine minutes at the start of the second half and do not appear to be missing midfield pair Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister, who have departed to Chelsea and Liverpool respectively. But De Zerbi said he hopes to sign a new midfielder, plus one other player before the transfer window closes on September 1. “I think we have to go into the transfer market,” he added. “Without Caicedo, we have to play in different ways.” Wolves manager Gary O’Neil has lost both matches in charge of the club after replacing Julen Lopetegui earlier this month. O’Neil’s side began brightly after impressing in their narrow 1-0 defeat at Manchester United in their opening match, but were brutally punished by Brighton for failing to take their chances. The former Bournemouth boss said: “I didn’t think it was worlds apart. The scoreline will obviously make most people believe it was, but it wasn’t miles apart. “Look at the numbers, shots, chances created. But yeah, you can’t miss that many chances. “It was an aggressive gameplan. We tried to go after Brighton when we could, pressed high and managed to regain the ball a few times. “There’s risk attached to that, so when we win the ball back and have our chances, we need to score because when it goes to the other end, Brighton were extremely clinical with theirs.” Read More Charity boss speaks out over ‘traumatic’ encounter with royal aide Ukraine war’s heaviest fight rages in east - follow live Marco Silva confirms Aleksandar Mitrovic is joining Al Hilal Jurgen Klopp to consider appeal against Alexis Mac Allister’s red card Reds hit back after shaky start, while Brighton and Brentford also win

LAS VEGAS & NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 17, 2023--

Lando Norris wanted to turn the air blue following his accident with Lewis Hamilton at the Spanish Grand Prix – but stressed his compatriot did not do anything wrong. Norris started third after a fine performance in qualifying, but his race was over inside two corners when he drove into the back of Hamilton’s Mercedes. Norris was forced to pit for a new front wing, relegating him to the back of the field. The 23-year-old Briton eventually took the chequered flag in 17th place. Hamilton continued without damage, finishing runner-up to Max Verstappen. Asked what went through his mind following his first-lap prang, Norris said: “F***. Max [Verstappen] went off the track and a bit wide, so he had to bounce over the kerb at Turn 2. Everybody checked up and I was too close to Lewis to react and brake so it was just unlucky in my opinion, and a racing incident. “Lewis didn’t do anything wrong. I touched his wheel, nothing happened to him, maybe it made him quicker today.” Following a brief resurgence, McLaren are on something of a downward spiral. Norris has scored only a dozen points from the opening seven rounds, leaving him 11th in the standings. And the highly-rated Briton, who is under contract with McLaren until the end of 2025, painted a gloomy picture for the remainder of the campaign. “The pace was as expected as it was today which was bad,” he said. “I don’t think we expected anything else. “We were slow and we have been all year. Yesterday was a special day. Some of the good teams struggled and some of the worst teams did a better job. People made mistakes and we capitalised on that. “But we are clearly nowhere near as quick as the top-five teams so there is no point thinking about finishing in the points because we are not quick enough. “There are no new parts on the car. We had an upgrade in Baku and that was about it. It maybe brought us half-a-tenth to a tenth. “A lot of teams have brought upgrades to the last few races and we haven’t. We are not expecting anything more than we are doing and if we get in the points it is an amazing day but the expectation is that we won’t.” Read More Max Verstappen maintains dominance but Mercedes show their teeth at Spanish Grand Prix Lewis Hamilton accuses George Russell of ‘dangerous’ driving: ‘He just backed off’ ‘Best driver in the world’ needs more than just a Formula One title, claims rival championship boss Hamilton and Russell collide as Verstappen claims Spanish GP pole Max Verstappen sets the pace again but little to cheer for Lewis Hamilton Lewis Hamilton toils in 12th as Max Verstappen and Red Bull dominate in Spain
