Lea Schuller scored a late equaliser for Manchester United in a 1-1 draw with Brighton in the Women's Super League, denting United's Champions League qualification hopes. Brighton had taken the lead through Jelena Cankovic and were close to a historic win.
Lea Schuller 's first Women's Super League goal for Manchester United snatched a late point as Marc Skinner's side drew 1-1 with Brighton at Leigh Sport s Village.
United were looking to move back into the top three with a victory but - in their final home game of the season - they produced a lacklustre display as Brighton, who in recent weeks have beaten WSL league leaders Man City and Champions League holders Arsenal in the FA Cup, went within minutes of another historic win. Jelena Cankovic scored Brighton's first WSL goal at Man Utd, and it was almost enough to secure the three points, but Schuller's stoppage-time equaliser meant the spoils were shared.

United, who have just one win in their last five, have only one league game remaining against Chelsea and they are a point behind third-placed Arsenal, who have three games in hand, and three points behind the second-placed Blues, who have two games left. For Brighton, next up for them is a WSL game against Arsenal, live on Sky Sports in midweek, before they can turn their attention to an FA Cup semi-final against Liverpool on Sunday May 10.
