Brighton Women 3 West Ham 0: how it was won
The official Albion report records Symonds’ half-volley after a headed clearance dropped to her outside the penalty area. Kirby then finished Marisa Olislagers’ cross at the far post in the 63rd minute. Seike followed with a chip over the goalkeeper after an Emilie Joramo assist.
The club describes the conditions as wet and windy. It also records Emily Murphy having a later effort disallowed for offside.
Why it matters for Albion
Scoring through three players and keeping the opposition out are useful parts of the same result. The clean sheet provides a defensive measure alongside the more eye-catching opening goal. One successful afternoon still needs to be assessed within the wider season.
Sky Sports’ match highlights provide an additional record of the result. The official WSL club page carries the competition’s fixtures, results and standings.
Brighton Locals’ view
The encouraging part is the combination of a decisive attacking contribution and a clean sheet. Albion gave supporters at the Amex a complete result to celebrate. The next test is whether that balance can be sustained, rather than assuming a single win settles the season’s direction.
