Brighton 0-4 Man City: Andree Jeglertz targets more titles as Khadija 'Bunny' Shaw opens up on new contact after FA Cup final win

Andree Jeglertz says his job now is to win more titles with Manchester City after they completed a domestic double with a Women's FA Cup final victory over Brighton.

In his first season at the club, Jeglertz secured two trophies after years of near misses from Man City. The last time they won a league and FA Cup was in 2016, and had not won the competition overall since 2020.

There have been other League Cup wins since, but this year has firmly put the club back on top after years of domination by Chelsea.

Now the question will be can they sustain it - and that is exactly what Jeglertz is aiming to do.

"That will be my job now, to make sure we are hunting for more, that we are coming with confidence, but at the same time knowing we need to work even harder next year.

"We need to train more, we need to work harder in every training session, we need to be better in so many things because defending a title is more difficult than winning a title... I'm looking forward to that."

Brighton were playing in their first major final and were the underdogs heading into the game. They gave themselves plenty of hope with a dominant opening 35 minutes, but once Man City clicked, there was no turning back.

Goals from Khadija 'Bunny Shaw and Alex Greenwood saw them into a 2-0 lead at the break, before second-half efforts from Aoba Fujino and Vivianne Miedema completed the victory.

Jeglertz added on the game itself: "We struggled a lot in the first half, but there is something with this team. We have so many individual qualities and those are the ones that have given us the opportunity to win the game.

"That's what it's about. We can put a lot of attention to the build-up and owning the ball, but it's about what you are doing in the penalty area that has won the league for us.

"I think we struggled in our own build-up, we didn't have the positions that we were supposed to do. I was a little bit upset at half-time because that's the only thing we can ask. We can make mistakes, but if we don't do what we agreed on beforehand, we struggle.

"We did much better in the second half, with Alex's position, with Kerolin's position, Aoba coming in. A big difference in starting positions."
