Brighton’s women's side carved a historic path to Wembley with a 3‑2 comeback against Liverpool, turning a 2‑0 deficit into a triumph that now places them in their first FA Cup final. The match, held at St Helens, saw the Seagulls claw back after early setbacks, proving their season’s form is more than a fluke for the coming season.

Manager Dario Vidosic described the moment as inevitable, citing a free‑kick in the dying seconds that felt destined to seal victory. Midfielder Nadine Noordam, who had never scored for Brighton before, calmly slotted the winning goal in the 95th minute, sending the crowd into a rapturous roar and cementing the club’s ambition for silverware.

Off the pitch, Brighton’s investment in women’s football continues with a £75m stadium plan beside the Amex Arena, aiming to give the team a permanent home and boost fan growth. Their seven‑game unbeaten run and victories over Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool set a high bar, positioning the Seagulls as serious contenders for the WSL title as well of the season.
