Justine, who herself plays football for Blackburn Community Sports Club Ladies FC, said: "The atmosphere was fantastic from start to finish.

"This has helped to put women's football on a bigger platform and I have received a lot of positive comments and feedback from customers who are keen to watch it."

As fans around the UK prepare to cheer the Lionesses on this Sunday, the Royal Dyche will be screening the match. Justine added: "My staff will be on hand to create a fantastic atmosphere here in Burnley aswell as at Wembley."

It has been an exciting week for Justine as she hosted a visit from former Clarets boss Sean Dyche. Justine named her pub in tribute to him in 2018 and extended an invitation for him to visit.

Dyche promised to visit the Yorkshire Street watering hole when Justine presented him with a joke award for 'the most incognito customer' at the Burnley FC in the Community awards. But just weeks later he was sacked from the club.

But he held true to his promise and spent a couple of hours at the pub, indulging in a couple of pints and a chat with regulars.
