BBC Sport Gives London Pub 'Lioness' Makeover for England Women's World Cup Semi-Final

World Cup semi-finals are tricky – do you watch it at home, with a sofa to hide behind in case it goes to penalties? Out with your mates at the pub, if you can find a place that isn't rammed? And it's too late to get to Lyon now, right?

Never mind. The Lion in Aldgate has, in association with BBC Sport, rebranded as The Lioness for one night only to host coverage of England's Women's World Cup semi-final against the USA, as the Lionesses aim to reach the final for the first time.

The BBC Sport takeover will make this the only Lioness pub in England (yes, London media bias and all that, pipe down); Radio 1 DJ Adele Roberts hosting the coverage with England and Arsenal legend Rachel Yankey providing analysis.
