Matildas star Mackenzie Arnold has revealed why she wanted footy star Nathan Cleary banned from running onto the field to meet his girlfriend Mary Fowler after one of the national side's recent matches in Perth.
The Aussie and Manchester City ace's romance with the NRL grand final winner became the biggest sport story in the country when Daily Mail Australia exclusively revealed the pair enjoying some tender moments in a park on October 31.
Fowler and her Matildas teammates were playing Olympics qualifying matches in the city at the time, and the couple were seen sharing a coffee the day before they embraced for the photos.
