The Red Devils were beaten 3-1 on their own patch, remaining in the bottom half of the table.
However, Ferguson helped make Brighton coach Fabian Hurzeler’s day, according to the young coach.
Hurzeler said: “It was very special. In my squad is one of his favourite players he worked with, Danny Welbeck.
“Danny connected us and we had a small exchange several weeks ago.
“He is a very humble and nice guy and today we met for the first time in person.
“One of the best coaches ever, great to meet him.”
