Alexia Putellas scored her first goal in the Women's Super League as London City Lionesses beat Brighton 2-0 at the Copperjax Community Stadium, according to the BBC and Sky Sports. The result moved London City Lionesses up to second place in the WSL table, Sky Sports reported. Putellas had not previously found the net since arriving in English football.

London City Lionesses have been building their position in the league table through recent results, with the win over Brighton forming part of that run. Putellas is a high-profile signing whose arrival was seen as significant for the club, given her established reputation in women's football before her move to England. Her first goal in the competition came in the win against Brighton, adding to London City Lionesses' tally for the match, which finished 2-0. Brighton were unable to find a response on the day.

The win keeps London City Lionesses among the leading sides in the Women's Super League table, according to Sky Sports' report on the standings.

Both outlets covered the match as a routine league fixture, with the emphasis placed on Putellas' first goal for her new side.
