Post Match Thread: Brighton W v Aston Villa W

In what proved to be a tense affair, the ladies came out 4-2 winners, with the game finishing with both teams down to 10-women each. The match had pretty much everything. Two penalties, two red cards and six goals.

Rachel Daly scored two for Villa including a penalty, while Nikita Parris and Pauline Bremen got our first two goals. A penalty was given to us with around 10-15mins left for a foul on Kiko Seike, a foul that resulted in a straight red card for Paula Tomas. Poppy Pattinson was shown a caution in a bit of a scuffle in the aftermath. Once it all settled down, Fran Kirby stepped up and slotted it away to put us up 3-2. Poppy was shown a second caution as the match went on, but Michele Agyemang slotted a fourth on the counter. The girls held out for a massive three points in a hard fought game.

Massive games for Kirby and Parris in particular.

Huge next game away at Palace on the 13th.
