Watching Everton take on Manchester United on Sunday afternoon, Sky Sports viewers were taken by an unusual sight in the crowd. Easily distracted during a fairly dull encounter, fans noticed a female fan in the crowd wearing not the colours of United or Everton, but of Chelsea. Confused, supporters took to social media to ask who this girl was, and find out exactly what she was doing at Goodison Park. The mystery girl was more than happy to put the record straight.
Emily Rogawski is from New York, but moved across to England to follow her passion for football. A Chelsea fanatic, she attended the Blues’ win against Manchester City at the Etihad on Saturday. Never one to turn down a match, though, Rogawski - who is based in Liverpool —was back in the stands on Sunday as she snapped up a ticket for just £15 for the 4pm kick off.
Rogawski explained on her Instagram post: ‘I LOVE Chelsea & I LOVE football! So wouldn't want to miss a game like this! Especially when tickets were only £15.’
“Being an American living in England is a dream with all the football surrounding me so I try to go to as many games as I can.” The American admitted she had been hoping to catch Bastian Schweinsteiger in action, but was left disappointed as Jose Mourinho didn’t even name the German in his matchday squad.
