Malick Yalcouye's second-half header secured a narrow 1-0 victory for Brighton at Getafe, moving Fabian Hurzeler's side into the top eight of the Conference League. The Ivory Coast midfielder broke the deadlock in the 64th minute after Costinha cushioned a header across goal. Brighton dominated possession but struggled to break down the low block, with Jaouen Hadjam striking the woodwork twice earlier in the match.
Despite missed chances, including a big miss from substitute Ibrahim Osman, Brighton held on for the win. The result ends a frustrating 0-0 draw and moves Brighton to fifth in the standings with three league-phase games remaining. They remain unbeaten in their three Conference League fixtures so far.
