England winger is heading back to her Wearside roots

England open the tournament at the Stadium of Light on Friday night against the United States in Pool A.

Part of Dow’s family hail from Wearside and some will be in attendance, including her 98-year-old grandfather, Gordon.

“My dad was born in Sunderland and my grandad lived there his whole life,” the England winger said. “We did the long old trips from Berkshire up to Sunderland for our Easters and everything.

“What's really cool is my grandad, he’s 98 and he’s coming to the game. He’s never been to the new Stadium of Light. He'll be there, so I’m very happy.
