Pop superstar Madonna was spotted at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for Sunday's Women's Super League clash between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea.
The Blues bounced back from consecutive defeats to Arsenal and Manchester City with a 2-0 success against their London rivals. Chelsea took their time to get into the groove before England star Keira Walsh opened the scoring in the 39th minute. USA international Alyssa Thompson then doubled the advantage just four minutes in the second period to condemn Spurs to their second defeat in three games.
While Chelsea claimed a crucial win, many viewers were hung up on the fact that music icon Madonna was in attendance to watch the WSL encounter.
Rather than being a true blue, Madonna was actually in attendance due to her connection to Tottenham. The 67-year-old attended the match just a day after she had watched her 13-year-old twins, Stella and Estere, in action for Tottenham Under-14s.
Madonna, who has six children, shared photos of the academy game on Instagram, writing: “I will pay G*D for some sunshine! Go Stella and Estere, Hotspurs win!!! 5-0”.
A day later, the Like a Prayer star revealed on social media that she had taken her ‘second Uber ever' to watch Spurs and Chelsea alongside her boyfriend, Akeem Morris, and her twin daughters, who were born in Malawi in 2012 and adopted by Madonna in 2017.
FGG says: Unlikely appearance but not uncommon
Madonna's appearance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium was a surprise, but it is certainly not the first time that the Material Girl has visited football games in England. She attended Chelsea's Premier League game against Liverpool last October with Akeem and had previously watched matches when she was married to Chelsea supporter and film director Guy Ritchie.
The music legend also moved to Lisbon back in 2017 when her son David joined the Benfica academy. However, David, whom Madonna adopted in 2006, subsequently gave up his football dream to pursue a career as a music composer.
Given her fairly recent appearances at Stamford Bridge and at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, it seems only a matter of time until we see Madonna make another appearance at a UK football ground.
