Brighton boss De Zerbi: Maybe Dunk like his gaffer in terms of emotion and passion!

Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi shrugged off Lewis Dunk's dismissal after victory at Nottingham Forest.

Brighton won 3-2, with Dunk sent off with 25 minutes left.

De Zerbi said: "It [the result] was a big emotion; we are suffering too much, we have too many injuries, we lost four points against Sheffield United and Fulham at home. To win is difficult; my celebration is because we are suffering too much at the moment.

"We want to celebrate with our fans. If you have the right attitude, you win the game. It is difficult to explain [the injuries]; we are not used to playing so many games. I don't know the reason; we are working well in the week, managing well. Maybe it is not enough,

"My work is to understand and anayse the players I can use and change tactical disposition. We never change our ideas, but I have to put my players in the best condition. We played a great game today until the red card. One of the best of the season.

"Lewis Dunk made a mistake. Maybe he's like his gaffer in terms of emotion and passion!"
