We ask fans to come together in the 10th minute of Friday’s game against France in recognition of Leah's life
The FA, Lionesses players and staff were devastated to hear of the tragic passing of 10-year-old Leah Harrison. 

Football was a source of joy in Leah’s life and like so many young girls across the country it was her dream to play for the Lionesses. 

As the team head to the North East, Leah and her family and friends are in our collective thoughts. 

We ask fans to come together in the 10th minute of Friday’s game against France at St James’ Park in recognition of her life and in support of her family.

To Leah, you will forever be a Lioness.
