Three goals in six minutes helped Brighton & Hove Albion complete a remarkable comeback victory over Stoke City at the bet365 Stadium.

The Potters looked destined for all three points when Ryan Hill gave them the lead after just three minutes, and Tre Pemberton doubled their advantage an hour later.

However, the Seagulls struck back thanks to a curling effort from Max Sanders on 69 minutes.

Two minutes later they were level when Aaron Connelly finished off a fine team move from close range.

And Brighton completed their fightback when Jayson Molumby (pictured) broke forward from midfield to bend a wonderful 74th-minute winner past Josef Bursik from the edge of the penalty area.

The win lifts the south-coast side to fifth place in Division 2, six points above Stoke in ninth.
