There were boos at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea’s winless run extended to six games. Lampard named a much-changed side with one eye on Tuesday’s Champions League quarter-final, second leg against Real Madrid.

Conor Gallagher did at least end the Blues’ wait of over 600 minutes for a goal when his shot deflected in off Lewis Dunk after just 13 minutes.

But Brighton were utterly dominant thereafter and should have had more than a one-goal margin of victory to show from their 26 shots on goal.

Danny Welbeck came off the bench to score the equaliser just before half-time.

Paraguayan teenager Julio Enciso then won the game in spectacular style with a thunderbolt into the top corner 21 minutes from time.

Julio Enciso was playing for Libertad de Asunción in Paraguay 10 months ago when Brighton decided to invest £9.5m on him. Born in 2004 — great call again by #BHAFC. 🔵💡🇵🇾

Victory lifts Brighton to within seven points of the top four, but with a game in hand over Newcastle, who they are also still to face at St. James’ Park.

For the first time in the club's 122-year history, Brighton have won a Football League game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
