Brighton aggressor Percy tau it gave Manchester city defender Oleksandr Zinchenko a taste of diski football when he left the left back sprawled on the ground with orderly skill.
The South African made his full Premier League debut on Wednesday night and impressed that Brighton did well to keep Man City at bay for much of the first half.
Coach Graham Potter was photographed grimacing as his team conceded just before half-time in the 44th minute through a goal from Phil Foden.
From a local perspective, Tau looked comfortable and had some impressive playing spells that left SA fans showing their support on social media.
The way Percy Tau skinned Zinchenko?

As far as I’m concerned, it’s 1-1. What Percy Tau did to Zinchenko counts as a goal.

Percy Tau is giving Zinchenko a hard time … I hope he scores his debut goal!
