Social media abuse towards women's football 'abhorrent' - Wright
Former Arsenal and England striker Ian Wright has said that women's football deserves more support and backing.
Wright said: "It stands on its own. It's a very good product, the women's game, and it needs time to grow.
"When you put it out there [on social media] the abuse and the sexism that comes back, you could see it's absolutely abhorrent, it's terrible!"
