In a riveting and tightly contested FA WSL match, Brighton and Hove Albion WFC (Wom) squeaked by Leicester City (Wom) with a 3-2 victory, showing their ability to weather adversity and come out on top. The match was chock-full of nail-biting moments, with points being won and lost in quick succession, but Brighton consistently demonstrated their resilience, even when under heavy pressure.

In terms of pure match statistics, Leicester outperformed Brighton in corner kicks with a total of 9 compared to Brighton's 6. This was indicative of Leicester's aggressive offensive play and their constant pressure on the Brighton defence. However, Brighton was able to effectively handle this onslaught and turn defence into attack, scoring more goals despite having fewer corner kick opportunities.

Interestingly, Brighton was flagged more often for offsides, with 4 compared to Leicester's 3, which could suggest a more aggressive attacking strategy from Brighton, constantly pushing the boundaries of Leicester's defence. Still, it's worth noting Brighton's discipline was questionable during the match, receiving four yellow cards throughout the game, two of which were in the first and remaining in the second half, but they managed to end the game without any dismissals.

Leicester City, on the other hand, kept the match clean with no yellow card incidents. Despite this, they committed more fouls than Brighton, five to four, which possibly indicates that their defensive strategy was slightly more aggressive.

Despite Leicester City commanding significant play with more corner kicks and fewer offsides, Brighton proved superior at critical moments. Scoring three goals in the second half, they managed to take the win. The fast-paced response of Brighton's team to Leicester's second goal of the match, with Brighton scoring their third goal just over a minute later, was likely a significant moment in shifting the momentum of the game and securing their victory.

In conclusion, while both teams showed good performance, Brighton's ability to capitalise on goal-scoring opportunities and their resilience in the face of disciplinary pressure were instrumental factors in their win.
