(Reuters) - Cardiff City's Sol Bamba netted a dramatic late goal after a goalmouth scramble as they snatched a 2-1 victory over 10-man Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday to boost their hopes of avoiding relegation.

With seconds of normal time left Bamba's overhead kick come back off the post and the rebound fell to Callum Paterson whose effort cannoned off the bar. But Bamba made no mistake third time round when he fired the ball into the roof of the net.
