Manchester City's Women's Super League title celebrations were put on hold after a surprising 3-2 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion. City had hoped to clinch the title with a win, contingent on Arsenal's concurrent performance against Leicester City.
Despite jumping ahead early, thanks to a skillful goal from Kerolin, City lost their grip after Madison Haley struck twice for Brighton, sandwiching a goal by teammate Kiko Seike. City struggled with conversion opportunities, ultimately allowing Brighton to capitalize.
City's focus now shifts to their upcoming match against Liverpool, with two games left to secure their first league trophy since 2016. Manager Andree Jeglertz expressed confidence in the team's ability to recover and finish strong.
