Alex beamed as she watched the game with Neil who she met when they were partnered up on Strictly.

The women's footballer, 35, looked chic in a mustard yellow scarf and a black jacket.

Neil, 37, looked dapper in a three piece suit for their day out.

The pair came fifth in Strictly Come Dancing, which was won by Emmerdale's Kelvin Fletcher and Oti Mabuse last Saturday night.

Alex and Neil narrowly missed out on a place in the Strictly semi final.

Their dream came to an end when Shirley Ballas' deciding vote went in favour of Chris Ramsey and his pro partner Karen Hauer.

However the pair have remained firm friends and reunited at the men's game together.

Former defender, Alex, also played for England 140 times.
