The football great says she can't wait for FIFA Women's World Cup, which kicks off on Thursday. Fans will have to wait until Saturday to see Sarina Wiegman's side take to the field in their opener against Haiti and hopes are high after European championship success last summer. Harper is counting down the days and after her dad met the team, she ordered him to get all the signatures of her favourites. There will be some early starts ahead for the 12-year-old. The tournament is being held in Australia and New Zealand meaning there will be early kick-offs UK time. Speaking as Adidas unveil a one-to-one between Becks and striking sensation Alessia Russo, he expresses his gratitude to her for inspiring a new generation of footballers. He told her: "Obviously, the conversation this morning was about me meeting you and getting your autograph – which of course I must do after by the way. "But for you to inspire a new generation of footballer's – boys, girls, and my daughter, I want to say thank you for that. Enjoy it. "It's going to be the most amazing moment of your life landing in Australia and New Zealand and just knowing you have a whole nation behind you, supporting you." The FIFA Women's World Cup means will be some telly changes ahead – ITV will haul Good Morning Britain off the air next week as part of a big impending schedule shake-up. The popular programme will not be broadcasting as usual on Friday, and it is not the only show to be cancelled. There will be no This Morning or Loose Women on Thursday as they all make way for the Women's World Cup matches. But there is good news for fans of Lorraine, who will host an extended show instead.
