Manchester City Defeats Brighton in WSL

Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw's single goal in the 44th minute secured Manchester City a 1-0 victory over Brighton & Hove Albion, marking their first win in the Women's Super League (WSL) this season. Shaw's goal, assisted by Kerstin Casparij, was her third in two matches following a brace in a Champions League qualifier against Paris FC. City captain Alex Greenwood emphasized the importance of securing the win, noting the increasing competitiveness of the league. Despite Brighton's strong play, City managed to hold on for the win, with Greenwood stating they had improved their off-the-ball performance. Additionally, other teams like Manchester United and Arsenal also secured wins, while Chelsea's matchup against Manchester United was postponed due to scheduling conflicts with Champions League fixtures.
