LIONESS hero Jill Scott was forced to run off screen on live TV after SPRINKLERS threatened to drench her and BBC presenter Jo Currie.
Euro 2023 winner Scott, 38, was analysing the first-half of England women’s quarter-final Euros clash against Sweden – when disaster almost struck.
The Lionesses saw themselves 2-0 down to a rampant Sweden side in Switzerland on Thursday night.
Keira Walsh’s sloppy pass bounced back in line for Arsenal striker Stina Blackstenius to fire Sweden into an instant lead inside two minutes.
Before Julia Zigiotti Olme doubled the deficit by the 25th minute, with England feeling the wrath of manager Sarina Weigman on the sidelines.
Former England midfielder turned Jungle Queen and much-loved pundit Scott was tasked with dissecting England’s sorry performance.
But Scott and BBC presenter Currie almost suffered a surprise attack of their own when a rogue set of sprinklers came their way towards the end of the segment.
Scott said: “The crowd need to get behind them. England can come back from this.”;
Currie then warned Scott that a tidal wave was coming their way, before Scott said: “Quickly, go, go”; as the pair ran off screen.
Host Gabby Logan first looked shocked before composing herself and joking: “Is it good luck to get hit by a sprinkler? I’m just clutching at straws here.”;
THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY..
