An England WAG joked “Roy Keane, do you approve?” after a wardrobe blunder left her ditching her original matchday outfit before the Three Lions’ clash with Ghana.
Ellie Watkins, wife of Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins, revealed she was forced into a last-minute outfit change after forgetting to pack a bra for the trip to Boston.
The 30-year-old was spotted in the stands wearing a white tank top, blue jeans and a red jacket as she cheered on England in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

The mother-of-two shared details of the fashion mishap on Tuesday (23 June), just hours before kick-off, as reported by Need To Know.
It proved to be more eventful than the match itself, with England held to a disappointing 0-0 draw and Ollie Watkins remaining on the bench.
Ellie also appeared keen to stay on the right side of former Manchester United captain Roy Keane following his recent criticism of WAGs wearing their partners’ football shirts.
The no-nonsense pundit recently suggested footballers’ wives and girlfriends wearing their other half’s shirt belonged in Room 101 – the place reserved for people’s biggest pet hates.
Keane’s comments, made on The Overlap, left fellow pundits Gary Neville and Ian Wright in stitches.
With that in mind, Ellie opted for a more understated look, choosing a simple England cap rather than a football shirt.
The WAG cheekily referenced Keane’s comments by asking: “Roy Keane, do you approve?”
Her tongue-in-cheek remark poked fun at the pundit’s swipe at patriotic WAGs often seen supporting their partners from the stands.
But the outfit was not part of the original plan.
Ellie revealed she had packed a much more summery look, only for Boston’s wet weather to ruin her plans.
A second outfit option was also ruled out after she realised she had forgotten to bring a bra.
Ellie Watkins said: “I have had an absolute mare with my outfit today.
“I had a whole like summary outfit planned and then we arrived in Boston and it is grey skies and due to p*ss it down.
“That was issue number one and then I unpacked my suitcase and realised I forgot a bra.
“The other top I was meant to wear was completely see through, so instead I’ve gone for a pretty basic outfit.
“The tank top is from Maebe and is such good quality and giving me a bit more coverage.
“Got a little touch of England, because I’m not doing the shirt today.”
