Agyemang impresses and gets first goal of campaign

After making herself a household name this summer and being handed the No 9 shirt at Brighton, Michelle Agyemang must have felt a little pressure to build consistent performances across 90 minutes. A series of bright displays have impressed so far but she had little to show for it from the first three games in terms of scoring. Her winner against Everton this weekend, therefore, would have come as a huge relief. It was an eye-catching performance from the 19-year-old who was at the heart of everything Brighton did in the 1-0 victory – a constant threat who was happy to drop deep to impact play, strong in her duels (she won the most) and a presence when Brighton needed to defend their own box. Her goal subjected Everton to a third straight defeat as Brian Sørensen continues to work out the best formula for his team. Sophie Downey
