Teesside takeover: The Lionesses are coming
England v Brazil
12:45 pm kick-off
Riverside Stadium, Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough is the location for England's Lionesses first home game since this summer's World Cup.
The women's squad is rife with homegrown North East talent. Steph Houghton, Lucy Bronze, Jill Scott, Beth Mead, Carly Telford, Demi Stokes, Rachel Daly and Lucy Staniforth were all born and bred in our region.
On Saturday, England will take on Brazil in front of a sell-out crowd.
