Brighton continued their march towards European qualification with a 2-0 win at Bournemouth - a result that moves them within four points of the top four
Evan Ferguson sent Roberto De Zerbi's side on their way to maximum points with a classy flicked finish before substitute and fellow teenager Julio Enciso wrapped up the points in injury time
The victory keeps Brighton in sixth but moves them to within four points of Manchester United in fifth and Tottenham in fourth and crucially De Zerbi's side have two games in hand on Spurs ahead of their meeting in north London on Saturday
The only negative on another fantastic night for Brighton was player of the match Moises Caicedo limping off in the second half with a lower leg injury although De Zerbi played down fears of a spell on the sidelines, calling the issue "not a big problem" and was confident the Ecuador international will play on Saturday
Bournemouth, who kept Brighton goalkeeper Jason Steele busy, drop back into the bottom three but it remains very tight in the battle for survival
Following a lack of goalmouth action in an end-to-end opening period delayed by referee Darren Bond requiring assistance with his communication equipment, the visitors showed their class with their 18-year-old striker Ferguson finishing like he had been playing in the Champions League for years
Kaoru Mitoma sent in the cross and the Republic of Ireland striker produced a nonchalant finish into them bottom-right corner from around seven yards
Yet Bournemouth responded well to the setback and should have levelled
Dominic Solanke stung the palms of Seagulls goalkeeper Steele before on-loan Sassuolo midfielder Hamed Traore wastefully poked wide after being slipped clear by Jefferson Lerma and was then denied by a superb block from Adam Webster
Brighton captain Lewis Dunk came close to turning the ball into his own net under pressure from Solanke early in the second period before Lerma's dipping effort from the edge of the box was tipped over by the fingertips of Steele
David Brooks was later introduced for his first home appearance since being diagnosed with stage two Hodgkin's lymphoma in October 2021
However, the longer the game went on, Brighton, aided by De Zerbi's smart substitutions, looked the more likely
Cherries 'keeper Neto produced a fine stop to deny Pascal Gross before Caicedo then departed in distress following a collision with Philip Billing
Danny Welbeck, on in place of Ferguson, almost put the result beyond doubt seven minutes from time when he was denied by Neto following fine work from Mitoma and Solly March
It was left up to 19-year-old Paraguay striker Enciso to seal the points
 He collected a pass from Gross and coolly stroked home his first goal for the club
It's a big weekend for both sides astravel to relegation rivals  on Saturday; kick-off 3pm
Meanwhile,  host , also on Saturday, in a match that could have a huge bearing on the race for the top four; kick-off 3pm
 said: "His [Ferguson] best quality is to score and it's a very important quality but I think he has potential to improve in other parts of the pitch, to play with the other players, to play more for the team
"In my work I have to make results but I have to help my players to improve, to progress
 But I think we can achieve our target with Evan
"I'm proud for him, I think the same for our scouting in our club
 He can become a great player
"Cherries boss  said: "We missed some big chances
 They converted one very difficult one in the first half
"Brighton are a good side when you open up spaces
 We had a real good go at it
"We were aggressive against a very good side
"As a whole, I thought the game was there for us but we didn't manage to take some really good chances
"However, if Man City, Man Utd or Brighton win the FA Cup and finish in the top five their Europa League qualifying spot for winning the competition will be passed down to the next highest Premier League finisher who does not qualify for Europe, so sixth place
Similarly, because Man Utd won the Carabao Cup and will likely finish in the top five, their Europa Conference League qualifying spot from that competition will go to the next highest Premier League finisher without European football, so seventh place
