Schuller Saves Point Late as Man United Women Draw Brighton, Champions League Push Fades

Manager Marc Skinner says he is accountable for the slump.

Overview

  • Manchester United Women drew 1-1 with Brighton at Leigh Sports Village after a 94th‑minute equaliser from January signing Lea Schuller.
  • The draw leaves United unlikely to reach next season’s Champions League as they sit fourth and trail Arsenal despite having played more games.
  • Marc Skinner acknowledged criticism from home fans and said he is responsible for the failure to secure the win.
  • He praised Schuller’s finishing but said United lacked incision, played backward too often, and mistimed runs that led to offside calls.
  • Skinner said the club will review where to invest this summer as rivals increase spending, and Leah Galton made her final home appearance before leaving at season’s end.
