Lucy Bronze's family jetting to Canada after their girl booked England's semi-final place

Posted Jun 29, 2015
Lucy’s looping header came on the back of her screamer against Norway in the last sixteen which took England into the quarter finals for the first time, another 2-1 win. And mum Diane, a 55 year old teacher, and dad Joaquim, 55, who still live in Alnwick, could not be prouder of their girl. Lucy also has a brother Jorge, 25, and sister Sophie, for whom Lucy’s antics provided the perfect start to her 17th birthday on Sunday. (The Chronicle)
