Angry fans have joined Earps in demanding the sportswear giants do a U-turn as she is "desperate" for her family and friends to finally get her kit. 2 England's 40-cap goalkeeper Mary Earps celebrates reaching Sunday's World Cup final but is less happy over Nike's treatment of her over replica kit Credit: Rex 2 Nike's congratulatory post after victory over Australia stirred the issue further as Earps was omitted from their picture Credit: instagram @nikefootball Fifa's reigning female stopper of the year has won 40 caps since 2017. And the Manchester United star, 30, has been "fighting behind closed doors" for Nike to change their policy. Now pundits and supporters on social media are backing her pleas after the Lionesses reached a World Cup final for the first time ever. The furore deepened after Nike posted a "Pure Lionesses' energy" congratulatory message following Wednesday's 3-1 semi-final win over Australia in Sydney - but left Earps out of the montage of players. Many supporters online suspect the manufacturer snubbed her in a failed attempt to dampen the shirt controversy. It's understood Nike reckon goalkeepers' tops sell poorly. But most fans appear to doubt this belief or feel the company is showing Earps a lack of respect. One posted: "Time to fix this @nike? (can't imagine an England men's team in the world cup final and being unable to buy the goalie kit...) #Lionesses." Another said: "Mary Earps is about to play in a World Cup Final. And kids still can't buy her shirt. Sort it out." A third put it more bluntly: "For God's sake sell Mary Earps' shirt." A fourth suggested she had been unfairly singled out: "You can't buy her shirt because Nike didn't think it was worth making it){kind=link}
