Football fans at Glastonbury won’t have to miss out on the Women’s World Cup, because the festival has confirmed it’ll show England’s quarter-final game.

The match against Norway will be shown on big screens at the festival’s popular West Holts stage on Thursday.

The announcement comes after England midfielder Georgia Stanway tweeted Glastonbury asking for the game to be screened for festival-goers – including her brother.

Glastonbury famously showed the England and Germany fixture in 2010, which came at the knock-out stage of the men’s World Cup.

England lost 4-1, but the screening drew a large audience (and left some artists playing to greatly reduced numbers).

The latest announcement was met with joy from football fans on Twitter.

Stanway also shared her excitement that her brother would be able to watch the game.

Good luck to the Lionesses!
