Brighton's players watched a re-run of the Bournemouth defeat yesterday and asked how they have reacted since the defeat, Hughton said: "The players have reacted well. We had the normal meeting yesterday and went through the game and the goals we conceded.

"If I looked at this season it was probably our worst defeat and our worst performance but this is football. There isn't one player in the changing room who wouldn't have gone through a bad defeat, a bad performance and so.

"It's always about how you respond to that. You respond to that because you're professional and you don't have a choice.

"This is the game, the ups and downs, and I expect very much a reaction from our players."
