For Kicks & Giggles: Spot the Difference and Gone Bananas

The back-page puzzle spread runs two games. Spot the Difference uses Lynne Cameron’s photograph of the England substitutes striking a pose at the 2019 World Cup, a matchday tradition of hers through the tournament, with nine changes worked into the second image – a missing England badge, a basketball, a guitar, a sock changed colour, a shirt number removed. Gone Bananas asks readers to identify six players who have covered or disguised their own faces, one of them wrapped up by Mary Earps: the answer key gives Megan Rapinoe, Jodie Taylor, Beth Mead, Kayleigh Green, Georgia Stanway and Natasha Dowie. The page also announces that the She Kicks office monkey, the subject of the previous issue’s naming competition, is now called Nutmeg, courtesy of reader Molly Burton.
