Chris Hughton has praised the performance of his Brighton players as they suffered Championship play-off heartbreak against Sheffield Wednesday. The Seagulls finished 15 points clear of their semi-final opponents but were beaten 3-1 on aggregate to end their hopes of promotion to the Premier League. The Yorkshire side held a 2-0 advantage from the first leg at Hillsborough, but despite Lewis Dunk netting for Brighton, Ross Wallace equalised for the Owls and the hosts were unable to find another reply. Manager Hughton was full of praise for his players, who missed out on automatic promotion on goal difference, and thought his side deserved more from the match.Yes, it is a tough night because I didnt think it was a correct scoreline, I thought we had the better chances, Hughton told Sky Sports following the game. Highlights of the Sky Bet Championship play-off semi-final second leg Unfortunately for us, weve gone through a period in the last few games where things have gone against us either with decisions or injuries but Ive got a group of players in there who have been magnificent all season.They were never out of that top six and in that top three for most of the season and what they have got to do is use this as inspiration. Its tough at the moment for them but they have to use it to replicate it next season and to do that, theyve got to do what theyve done all this season.Theyve been excellent to work with, their application every day and its as good of a team spirit as Ive seen as a manager or a coach. I hope they can use that and todays events and the events during the season to be better next season. Sheffield Wednesday beat Brighton 3-1 on aggregate in the Sky Bet Championship play-off semi-finals Finishing so many points clear of sixth place, its tough but thats how it is, but they will be better players for it and more experienced for it.Brighton will be joined by Aston Villa, Newcastle and Norwich in the Championship next season, and Hughton thinks the league will only get more difficult as those sides battle for a return to the Premier League. Brighton were knocked out on a 3-1 aggregate score against Sheffield Wednesday Hughton said: I think this division will continue to get tougher. Its tough enough as it is anyway with the amount of games that you play and the level of performance from most of the teams.We went through a big chunk of this season winning games probably by a goal which is how tight the margins were so well find it tougher but the three teams coming down will also find out how tough it is. We have to use that to our advantage and come again strong next season.

SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- It was less than a year ago that the?Dallas Cowboys star rookie duo of running back Ezekiel Elliott and quarterback Dak Prescott were at the NFL Combine attempting to woo potential suitors through myriad tasks testing their mental and physical attributes. Today, the two are starters in the NFL on the current best team in the league, at 8-1, and first-rounder Elliot could challenge for league MVP.On Tuesday at the LCS Arena near the beaches of Los Angeles, 20 League of Legends amateurs began their own journey to write the script of their future careers. Under the support of four NA LCS teams in Immortals, Counter Logic Gaming, Echo Fox and Team Liquid, four teams were born to represent the elemental Drakes inside Summoners Rift: Mountain (IMT), Cloud (CLG), Infernal (FOX) and the aptly dubbed Ocean (TL).These ramshackle squads were represented by members of the team guiding the rookies through the combine. CLGs Ocean, for example, had both captain Zaqueri Aphromoo Black and head coach Tony Zikzlol Gray to shepherd the prospects. From there, the brainy quartet sat down in a private room to commence the drafting portion of the event, dividing the rookies into four even teams. The first overall pick, to Ocean, was jungler Omar OmarGod Amin, who entered the rookie field as one of the favorites to impress in the weeklong test of skills.Following the top selection, AD carry Deftly was selected by Team Infernal, mid laner Tuesday was picked up by Mountain, and another jungler, Wiggily, was scooped up by Liquids Team Ocean to round out the first-round picks.After the draft, the players dispersed into their newly chosen tribes and put on fresh uniforms to begin their quest to be the last team standing at the end of the week. The teams will play through Friday night, and a standout player might find himself earning a contract from one of the observing NA LCS clubs. While the players got to know each other, the first day was essentially up to the teams themselves -- no official matches are scheduled until Wednesday night.A team could have theoretically taken their respective rookies to an amusement park for the day; however, as expected, teams went straight into working, with scrimmages scheduled into the nightt.dddddddddddd Also, each team was partnered with a media crew, and ESPN Esports was selected to cover Team Mountain for the duration of the tournament.While several teams stayed at the LCS Arena studios to play in the scrimmage rooms, Team Mountain trekked to the Immortals team house to get the full experience of playing as professionals. A few players reflected on the feeling of sitting in the chairs of some of the elites in the league, such as former MVP and 2016 all-star Kim Reignover Ui-jin.We only get to train them for so many hours for so many days. We wanted to make sure all of our picks were above average or better, Team Mountain coach and new Immortals strategic head coach David Hermes Tu said after a pair of scrimmages to begin the day. We werent shooting too high, like star players, and we werent shooting too low. We didnt want any problem [players] we couldnt resolve by the end of the week, so I think we started out our draft strong.On what he looks to get out of the experience, he said his teams victories would be his own.[Ill enjoy] hopefully what they will enjoy, which is to make sure they know its not about winning, although winning is nice, Hermes said. It might be their sole experience and being exposed to what professional play is like and whether if they want to do it or not. I hope it gives them a good perspective of what is ahead of them.Although a winner will be crowned at the end of the combine, Hermes preached learning and achieving goals as a unit over taking the top prize. With only four days to play together before the event is over, this could be the one chance these players have to separate themselves from the faceless slew of amateurs in the North American ladder.A team house, dedicated scrims, playing side-by-side with your teammates and a legitimate coaching staff behind you make for an opportunity of a lifetime for Team Mountain.Tuesday, the top pick of the team, is confident he can impress in the mid lane, but itll take a five-man effort to stand above the rest. The official games begin Wednesday, and the hopes of a few prospects will begin to be snuffed out. ' ' '
