Hurzeler hails Gomez as Seagulls hit Palace for five

Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler commended his players after Diego Gomez's incredible goal helped the Seagulls secure a 5-0 victory against Crystal Palace in the Premier League. The Paraguay midfielder, who had previously missed a similar attempt against Sunderland, scored a 51-meter shot from the halfway line that left Palace goalkeeper Walter Benitez red-faced.

This remarkable goal evoked memories of David Beckham's 30-year-old effort against Wimbledon. Hurzeler praised Gomez for his hard work and selflessness, stating that he always puts the team first. The win marked Brighton's fourth successive top-flight victory and secured Hurzeler's first win over Palace, taking his team to 16 points from seven games.
