Brighton produced another storming first-half display to blow away Tromso and book their place in the league phase draw of the Conference League with a 4-0 win at the Amex. The Seagulls, who were 4-0 up against Aston Villa at the break on Sunday in the Premier League, bagged three by the interval against their Norwegian visitors to put themselves on course for Friday's draw. Olivier Boscagli then ensured it was back-to-back 4-0 wins with a late deflected drive.

The Seagulls were superb from the first whistle, overwhelming Tromso who had held them to a 0-0 draw in the Arctic Circle last week, with Charalampos Kostoulas, Maxim De Cuyper and Mats Wieffer on target in a first 45 which could easily have brought more goals.
