Brighton claimed a maiden Women's Super League win over Arsenal at the 14th attempt on Monday evening, running out 4-2 winners over the Champions League finalists in their final home game of the season.

Here's what both managers said after the game:

Brighton boss Dario Vidosic: "We had to be brave, we had to be tough, we had to be resilient together today to have a chance. We were fantastic. The effort was rewarded.

"Sometimes you have to look away from the table and focus on the process. We want to work hard, be tough to play against and today we found our moments. We made it difficult for a world class team."

On goalkeeper Sophie Baggaley's performance: "We know the quality she has. We are fortunate to have quality goalkeepers. That was Baggas' chance. She has been staying ready. To be called in less than 10 minutes before kick-off, she was phenomenal."

Arsenal boss Renee Slegers: "We conceded nine goals in the last two WSL games and we just said as a team we don't think it's acceptable. We don't want this to happen. There are different reasons. The Villa game was a different game. We need to learn two very tough lessons coming off a big success. We have to learn. We have to find solutions and move forward."

On if the Champions League final is a distraction: "It's intense for the players with where we came from and what's ahead of us. We have to be in the moment. I will be working until late tonight and tomorrow we want to try and get the details right and put our finger on what it is and how we want to move forward."

Brighton forward Yankuba Minteh spoke to BBC Radio Sussex after scoring against his former club Newcastle United: "Everybody wants to prove [wrong] the team that sells them, so I try to do that every time I play against them and I'm happy about it.

"If we grab the eighth place, that would be really good because that is what we're playing for."

Defender Jan Paul van Hecke, who returned to action after getting concussion, added: "It was a tough period, the first few days were bad getting headaches and being really tired. I was a bit worried but I could see a big difference after six or seven days.

"We can do a lot of things better, hopefully we can improve over the next few days and get Europe over the line."

We asked for your views on Brighton's Premier League match against Newcastle.

Here are some of your comments:

Brighton fans

Fran: A draw was a fair result as I thought we lacked creativity in and around their box. Our build up play is so slow, giving the opposition so much time to get back into position. We hold the ball at the back waiting for the strikers to come to us but they don't and then we don't seem to know what to do so just pump it forward and give it away. Very frustrating and boring to watch. Let's just get the season finished!

Ben: Referee wanted to give them absolutely everything from minute one. A one in three rate for calling a penalty is abysmal for a referee of that calibre. Every time we tackled them and got the ball, foul. The opposite but no ball, play on no issue. Absolutely awful overall.

Stuart: Disappointed not to win the game. We were so close, but to be fair Newcastle have some amazing assets in their team, none more so than Craig Pawson, he played a blinder.

Newcastle fans

Chris: That was an incredibly frustrating game to watch. We have gone from scoring for fun to not being able to get our key striker into half chance positions, all in the space of a few games.

Philip: Disappointing in the first half, but really improved in the second. Would have won with more composure in the box. Dan Burn was man of the match for me. Tonali had probably his poorest game for us, but he's only human!

Roy: Poor performance overall, but a point is probably a fair result. Awful dive from Willock and he deserved his yellow. Wieffer very lucky to still be on the pitch for Brighton after a clear second yellow card was not given for some strange reason. I'll take a draw away against a very good Brighton side

Fabian Hurzeler spoke to BBC Match of the Day after Brighton's draw against Newcastle: "There were too many mistakes and then we conceded a very cheap penalty which was a late on in the game. Last time we had a great comeback against West Ham last time but this week was also possible but football was not on our side so we have to make the best of it."

On whether the football is on an upward trajectory: "Absolutely. A good team performance, although we made some easy mistakes. We were not able to control the game like we wanted to but overall it was a good team performance, we stuck together and supported each other and then we have a chance to win games."

Only Southampton (11) have conceded more goals in the 89th minute or later in the Premier League this season than Brighton and Hove Albion, with Alexander Isak's penalty the eighth the Seagulls have conceded.

What a difference a week makes.

Brighton scored two late goals to snatch a win against West Ham last weekend but were given a taste of their own medicine by Newcastle.

That triumph over the Hammers halted a five-game winless streak and should have been the catalyst to allow Brighton to kick on in their hunt for European football.

However, the Seagulls lacked rhythm and can count themselves lucky to have picked up a point against Newcastle.

Yankuba Minteh's 28th-minute strike was against the run of play and Brighton didn't look like adding a second.

It took Brighton another 52 minutes to muster a shot.

They were rightly given a reprieve when two penalties awarded to Newcastle were overturned by the video assistant referee, however, Yasin Ayari had no argument when a spot-kick was awarded against him for handball.

Brighton, who had conceded at least two goals in each of their past six league outings, could not hang on with Alexander Isak rolling in the penalty with just one minute left of the 90.

Victory would have moved the Seagulls up to eighth and in a strong position for a European berth, but the draw keeps them 10th and hoping others slip up in the final three games.

Brighton got back to winning ways last weekend thanks to Carlos Baleba's brilliant late strike against West Ham.

The Seagulls beat Newcastle at St James' Park earlier in the season too, but that was before Eddie Howe's side hit their stride, and it is a big ask for Brighton to repeat that result.

Newcastle were just relentless in their win over Ipswich and another three points here would be massive in their bid for a top-five finish - I don't think they will get them, but we will see a few goals.

Sutton's prediction: 2-2
