BACK OF THE NETO IS SAFE

Pedro the star, but Wolves can't find a way through

- HECTOR NUNNS

PEDRO NETO was the star on the south coast - and any Brighton celebrations were muted despite reaching another milestone.

It was certainly a red-letter day for James Milner, as the Seagulls veteran chalked up a 633rd Premier League appearance to edge ahead of Ryan Giggs into second place on the all-time list.

That still leaves him 20 behind Gareth Barry. but there was little else for Roberto De Zerbi's side to get excited about.

And Portuguese ace Neto, 23on a first start since October_ almost inspired Wolves to an away victory and a fourth top-flight win on the spin for the first time since 1972.

Brighton did achieve a club record of nine top-flight matches unbeaten at home but with just four of those yielding three points, opportunities have been squandered.
