Brighton & Hove Albion boss Chris Hughton insists that his side "deserved" to take all three points from their meeting with Bournemouth, having twice been pegged back.

Chris Hughton has praised his Brighton & Hove Albion players for twice finding the net against Bournemouth, but admits that his side should have held on for victory.

The Seagulls netted through Anthony Knockaert and Glenn Murray early in both halves, though the visitors twice levelled up to earn a 2-2 draw at the Amex Stadium.

Brighton had previously scored just one goal in their last six top-flight outings, and ending that drought was the most pleasing aspect of the four-goal draw from Hughton's perspective.

"I thought we were good today. Some of the areas that we needed to address and needed to be better, which was giving us ourselves the opportunity to score goals," he told Sky Sports News.

"I thought we were very good in that department today, in regards to our intensity and our work in the final third. I'm just hugely disappointed, having gone in front on a couple of occasions in a game that certainly on chances we deserved and should have won, that we didn't."

Brighton scored as many goals against Bournemouth as they managed in their previous nine Premier League games combined.
