Ireland midfielder Megan Connolly started for Brighton as the south coast club held Chelsea to a 1-1 draw in the Barclays FA Women's Super League.
Chelsea are third with four points thanks to Adelina Engman's late equaliser, which denied Brighton all three points at the Peoples Pension Stadium.
Engman fired in from close range in stoppage time to cancel out Aileen Whelan's 84th-minute effort for the hosts.
Brighton sit eighth in the table with two draws from their opening two games.
😍 How about that for your second goal of the game?

Pauline Bremer scored twice as Manchester City won 2-0 at Reading. The Germany international put City ahead in the 30th minute with a strike from the edge of the box and added a second goal just prior to the hour mark, finishing the follow-up after her initial effort was blocked by goalkeeper Grace Moloney.
Bremer came close to making it a hat-trick in the 73rd minute when her header hit a post.
City are one of two teams to have so far registered two wins from two games, the other being Everton following their 2-0 home victory over Bristol City.
Chloe Kelly netted a brace in that game, two stunning right-footed efforts coming in quick succession shortly before the interval, and she was also denied a treble by the woodwork, sending another fine strike against the crossbar with 15 minutes of normal time to go.
Elsewhere, Tottenham got their first WSL goal and points as Rachel Furness' first-half penalty secured a 1-0 home win against Liverpool, who had Niamh Fahey sent off after the break.
And West Ham defeated Birmingham 1-0 at home courtesy of an Adriana Leon strike in the 27th minute.
