Alexia Putellas scored her first goal in English football, helping London City Lionesses to a 2-0 win against Brighton and moving them second in the WSL table. The Barcelona star collected a rebounded save after Chiamaka Nnadozie initially stopped Kadidiatou Diani's strike, then swerved a half-volley around her defender. It was Putellas' first real chance of a quiet first half, though Brighton nearly equalised when Emily Murphy's header curled onto the crossbar.

Lucia Corrales rounded off the victory late on, finishing a wonderful team break after Danielle van de Donk stole the ball from Fran Kirby, releasing Delphine Cascarino who picked out Corrales on the left. London City's third win of the season sends them above Chelsea and Tottenham into second place, while Brighton remain in 10th.
