England winger Lauren Hemp has been given the Freedom of North Walsham, this afternoon.

The local lioness was given the award by the council of her home town, after she helped England's to their first major piece of silverware in over half a century.

On Sunday, she put in the corner that saw Chloe Kelly score the winning goal in extra time.

It all took place at the Market Cross, where she was greeted by crowds chanting, "she's coming home".
