A sweeping finish from Shekiera Martinez helped West Ham United women’s team to a 2-1 victory in the Subway® Women's League Cup at home to Brighton & Hove Albion on Wednesday evening.
Nights under the lights are always special, and there was a terrific atmosphere inside Chigwell Construction Stadium when our No19 put us ahead on 75 minutes. Her instinctive strike from inside the box helped us turn the contest around after Seraina Piubel cancelled out Carla Camacho’s opener in the first half.
With two victories from two, the three points keeps us at the top of the Group C standings and ensures we have a three-point lead ahead of our final two games of the competition.
