Laura Woods wows in stylish black outfit for FA Cup action at minnows Sheppey as fans say ‘best signing ITV ever made’

Popular broadcaster followed her award night with David vs Goliath encounter

FANS feel the magic of the FA Cup extends beyond the pitch as Laura Woods was called "the best signing ITV ever made" on a trip to tiny Sheppey.

Viewers reckon the new Sports Presenter of the Year was a first-round knock-out in a black coat - a day after wowing at her award ceremony in a cut-out dress of the same colour.

Defying the cold, Laura oversaw coverage of the Isthmian League South East Division club's tie with League Two Walsall - four levels higher.

But one supporter had mixed emotions when seeing happy images of the Arsenal fan smiling at the Total Power Stadium in Kent.

He posted: "Missed out on a chance to woo Laura Woods tonight at my local team's FA Cup match because I’m nights. Ain’t it fair."

But another dubbed her "the best signing ITV ever made".

The 36-year-old broadcaster is better known for her Champions League coverage with TNT Sports.

And last month she went public via Instagram on her relationship with Love Island star Adam Collard.

But she is also in touch with the romance of the world's most-famous domestic cup competition.

She saw winger James Bessey-Saldanha cut in to swerve what she labelled a "wonder goal" for Sheppey midway through the first half.

And although the contest hotted up as Walsall roared back to win 4-1, fans loved Laura staying cool.

She's on a high after her presenter gong from Broadcast Sport.

And she used that occasion to show her toned midriff, with online admirers saying: "Beyond beautiful" and "Look at those abs".
