Megan Pickford, wife of England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford, has given Three Lions fans a boost after sharing a fortune cookie message she believes predicts England's World Cup triumph. The 30-year-old WAG received a seven-word note during a visit to the Color Factory in New York, as reported by NeedToKnow.
Fortune Cookie Message
The fortune read: 'A golden opportunity is on the horizon.' Megan Pickford interpreted this as a sign that England, managed by Thomas Tuchel, will go all the way in the tournament. The prediction comes ahead of England's round of 32 knockout match against DR Congo on 1 July at the Atlanta Stadium.
Lucky Kit for Pickford
The cookie also hinted at a lucky colour for Jordan Pickford's kit: 'Conchas Yellow'. This matches the yellow and gold away shirt worn by the keeper during England's red-shirted match against Panama. Megan Pickford believes this could be a lucky charm for the remainder of the World Cup.
WAG's Travel Troubles
Megan Pickford has faced travel issues in the US, including a suitcase blunder that left her without her belongings for England's first match against Croatia. She was forced to wear her seven-year-old son's shirt to support the team. 'Arrived in America, my suitcase did not. Can I wear my seven-year-old’s shirt for the game tonight or not?' she said. The suitcase was eventually reunited with her after a week abroad. She added: 'A special delivery arrived. It will not be leaving my sight before tomorrow's game.'
Megan and the family are now heading to Atlanta, Georgia to prepare for England's next match. Fans will be hoping the fortune cookie prediction proves accurate as the Three Lions aim for World Cup glory.
