‘Creepy, perverted’ sign aimed at Alisha Lehmann slammed by Women’s World Cup fans

Fans are blasting coverage on the BBC after a cameraman panned to a sign being held by a man asking for Alisha Lehmann to sign his body – just days after other male fans were dominating the supporters in the stands asking her for photographs

A ‘creepy’ sign aimed at Switzerland footballer Alisha Lehmann has been blasted by fans who accused the BBC of giving ‘perverted’ airtime to a man during the Women’s World Cup.

As Aston Villa and Swiss striker Lehmann was substituted onto the pitch in the 71st minute, BBC cameras panned and showed a fan’s sign with a message that read: “Alisha Lehmann sign my belly so I can be seen on telley.”

And fans watching on BBC Two were not impressed with the footage and took to social media to blast the moment the man was given airtime, saying men asking for women to touch their bodies in any way should not be given the promotion.

Lehmann is subject to a lot of attention both from fans in the stands and online, but fans are beginning to highlight the need for the attention to move from male fans holding signs.
