Andrée Jeglertz’s side lost for just the third time in the WSL on Saturday afternoon, going down 3-2 against Brighton.
The Blues had enjoyed a dream start when Kerolin’s looping effort left Chiamaka Nnadozie with no chance after just five minutes.
However, after largely dominating proceedings in the first half, we were pegged back when the Seagulls levelled in stoppage time through Madison Haley’s neat strike.
It was a bitter blow for City, who conceded again two minutes into the second half when Kiko Seike found the net from a tight angle.
City were then handed a huge mountain to climb after Haley’s second goal created a two-goal cushion with less than half an hour to play, although Khadija ‘Bunny’ Shaw’s 19th league strike did see the deficit halved with minutes left to play.
While City were dealt a blow in our pursuit of the WSL title, our title prospects still remain in our own hands with just two league games left to play, although it appears likely everything could go down to the final day.
