Newcastle United midfielder Georgia Gibson says scoring at St James’ Park would be a dream come true as she prepares for today's historic match. Newcastle United Women are playing Alnwick Town at St James’ Park. It is the first time the women’s team has played at the club’s home ground.
Usually the team plays their matches at Druid Park in Woolsington, but they played a match at Kingston Park stadium earlier this year which attracted nearly 3,000 supporters. Gibson told the club’s website that she hoped to get a similar or bigger turnout on Sunday.
