In the match, the Spanish team won 2:1 thanks to an excellent performance by Marcus Rashford. However, the most attention was drawn to the incident during the game when Laura was live streaming with Newcastle legend Given and Chelsea icon Joe Cole.

As players from both teams warmed up, Laura unexpectedly had to react to a ball that accidentally came her way. She managed to duck, but after an unsuccessful attempt by Given to straighten up, his microphone accidentally hit her head.

Laura Woods' reaction

Fortunately, Laura did not sustain serious injuries. After the incident, she commented:

“I’m a bit nervous standing here. Just now, I had to duck from a ball, and you (Given) actually hit me on the head.”

She also added:

“Thanks a lot for that. I was trying to look graceful, but I ended up getting hit in the back of the head.”
