City 2-1 Brighton: 8-minute highlights

Watch the best of the action from City's second half turnaround against Brighton in the Barclays Women's Super League.

Second half goals from Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw and Yui Hasegawa earned the Blues our first points of the season, and a maiden victory under new Head Coach Andrée Jeglertz.

Brighton had taken an early lead when Fran Kirby fired home on the rebound from a Michelle Agyemang effort, and held firm despite plenty of City pressure until the hour mark.

But Shaw then drew the hosts level with a powerful diving header after meeting Leila Ouahabi’s inviting cross to the back post.

City continued to press forward, and were eventually rewarded when Hasegawa grabbed the game’s decisive goal.

Aoba Fujino was its architect, playing a clever give and go with Kerolin before feeding her Japan team-mate in behind, who slotted home into the far corner.
