Arsenal 4-1 Brighton: How it happened

We extended our winning streak to nine Women’s Super League fixtures on Sunday with a thrilling 4-1 win over Brighton & Hove Albion at Meadow Park.

Despite dominating the opening exchanges and creating a number of golden chances, it was the visitors who opened the scoring.

Vivianne Miedema and Danielle van de Donk’s dangerous efforts were somehow kept out from inside the six-yard box - and shortly after we were punished by Ini Umotong.

The Brighton No 9 caught our defence off guard, raced through on goal and confidently finished past Sari van Veenendaal.

However, their early strike failed to stifle our confidence in the final third - and in the 24th minute Miedema levelled.
