Right after the entry of the players and the anthems, viewers of the match noticed an amazing sequence that we could not see in France because W9 had launched an advertising page.

As the players shook hands before kick-off, Ireland midfielder Ruesha Littlejohn refused to shake hands with striker Caitlin Foord. A lack of fair play which would have a surprising explanation. Indeed, fans speculate it might have something to do with…Littlejohn’s split from his ex-girlfriend, Ireland captain Katie McCabe. The two teammates broke up recently after 7 years together.

But what does the snubbed Australian player have to do with all this? Well she plays with McCabe at Arsenal and is a great friend of the Ireland captain. They even recently vacationed together in Ibiza. Additionally, Caitlin Foord has also just parted ways with Swiss midfielder and Arsenal team-mate Lia Walti. The rumors are therefore rife, even if no information concerning a possible relationship between the two players has really filtered.
