There are few, if any, more famous faces in the game than US international goalkeeper Hope Solo, who paid a special visit to the Etihad Stadium to watch City’s 5-0 win over Fulham.

It was a busy day for the Seattle Reign stopper, who appeared in front of fans at the BT City Square, met up with members of MCWFC and attended the all-schools under-13 football tournament at the Football and Tennis Centre by the stadium.

The two-time Olympic gold medalist took to Twitter after the match to share her thoughts on the victory and to reflect on an enjoyable trip to the home of the Blues.
