Brighton forward Neal Maupay has tender an apologised for the his role played in Bernd Leno’s injury but claimed some of Arsenal’s players “need to learn humility” after he grabbed a last-gasp winner at the Amex Stadium.
French forward Maupay lifted the ball over substitute Gunners goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez five minutes into the added time to earn a much-needed 2-1 goal to win for relegation-threatened Albion.
Martinez was only on the field because first-choice keeper Leno was stretchered off in the first half with a serious-looking knee problem following a nudge from Maupay.
Maupay in his tweet said “As I already said, I’m sorry about what happened to Bernd Leno, I never meant to hurt him. I wish him a speedy recovery 🙏🏼”
