England Lioness Alex Greenwood issues hometown promise after Euro success

England Lioness Alex Greenwood said she will "never forget" where she is from during the official unveiling of her mural.

The 29-year-old Euro 2022 winner started her footballing journey in her hometown of Bootle just a "stone's throw away" from where the 22ft mural commemorating her sporting successes now stands.
