In a desperate attempt to fulfil her childhood dream of taking to the hallowed Anfield turf, born-and-bred scouser Missy Bo Kearns sported a Chelsea shirt for the two sides' Champions League semi-final clash in April 2008.
Aged just seven, Bo Kearns was void of role models in the women's game and instead had dreams of emulating her idols Steven Gerrard and Fernando Torres.
Yet later tonight, the Allerton-born midfielder will finally take to the turf again - some 14 years since her last steps - as Liverpool Women host Everton in the Merseyside derby in front of an expected crowd of 25,000.
