Mary Earps wows in lacy outfit with underwear showing as SPOTY favourite steals the show on glam red carpet

MARY EARPS stole the show at the Sports Personality of the Year – before the awards ceremony even began.

The England goalkeeper, 30, arrived at MediaCity in Salford for the annual gong knowing she was the heavy odds-on favourite to scoop the trophy.

But before it got underway, she put on a dazzling display with a gorgeous lacy outfit on the red carpet.

Earps rocked the black number – which featured a full-length skirt and cut-out upper – as she smiled for the cameras.

The Manchester United stopper enjoyed a superb year in between the sticks.

She led her club side to the Women’s FA Cup final before helping the Lionesses finish as runners-up at the Women’s World Cup in the summer.

Nottingham-born Earps also collected the Golden Glove at the tournament in Australia and New Zealand for her performances for England.
