Premier League score and goal updates as Kaoru Mitoma restores visitors’ lead - United look for a second win on the bounce after a subpar performance against Southampton
Brighton attacker Kaoru Mitoma has become the most successful Japanese player in Premier League history. With his strike in victory at Manchester United on Sunday, it marked Mitoma 's 15th goal in the Premier League.
Mitoma is now the outright highest-scoring Japanese player in Premier League history, with 15 goals, moving one clear of former Leicester City striker Shinji Okazaki. Mitoma also got an assist on Sunday at Old Trafford, taking him to 12 in his Premier League career, double the total of any other Japanese player.
The wily Seagulls midfielder bundled the south coast side ahead in the second half at Manchester United. And with it, he became the Premier League's highest-scoring Japanese player ever. That's now 15 for Mitoma and we're going to go out on a limb and say that record will be extended in the seasons to come.
