Murray's late penalty earns Brighton draw at Southampton

UNITED STATES, Sept 18 (Reuters): Brighton & Hove Albion's Glenn Murray converted a 90th-minute penalty to snatch a 2-2 draw at south-coast rivals Southampton after they fought back from two goals down in a pulsating Premier League clash on Monday.
The result left Southampton in 13th place, one spot above Brighton who also have five points from as many games after their late pressure paid dividends.
Murray, who blasted his spot-kick past goalkeeper Alex McCarthy as the Seagulls scored their first away goals of the season, acknowledged they were fortunate to avoid defeat.
Southampton's Denmark midfielder Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg gave them a 35th-minute lead with a scorching shot from 30 metres.
