Brighton 1-0 Huddersfield: Late Andone header gives hosts win
Florin Andone put Huddersfield ahead with a header in the 79th minute
Substitute Florin Andone's superb late header gave Brighton their first Premier League win of 2019 at home to bottom-of-the-table Huddersfield.
Alireza Jahanbakhsh hit the crossbar before half-time for the hosts, who then dominated after the break.
Jahanbakhsh forced a fine save from Jonas Lossl, before Andone powerfully headed Anthony Knockaert's header past the Huddersfield keeper.
Brighton rise one place to 15th in the table, while Huddersfield stay 13 points short of safety.
