Rebekah Vardy, the wife of English national football team striker Jamie Vardy, has provided yet another confirmation that British footballers weren’t prohibited sex during the football championship in Russia, The Sun reports.
"There’s nothing scientifically proven to say that hinders performance. If anything it probably excels performance," Vardy said.
She also praised the actions of the Three Lions’ manager, Gareth Southgate, who, according to her, "got the right idea of the team mentality."
"He’s really relaxed with the players and he makes an effort with all of the families. He really encourages family days after games which relaxes the players, it brings a bit of normality in," she remarked.
