TV presenter Vicki Blomme lept to her defence, and compared Lehmann wearing make-up on the pitch to Cristiano Ronaldo and David Beckham caring about their hair.

She said on the Soccer Sisters podcast: “Yes, she plays with her sexuality, but they have done it many times.

“Look at Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo. I think makeup and personal grooming are seen differently than if a boy does his hair.

“A lot of people think it’s vanity, but it’s also feeling. The feeling of feeling confident and strong, there’s something to that. I think it’s good that we’re different and that we look however we want.

“You take some of the attention away from football, but that’s how it happened also with Beckham. There is nothing wrong with playing football with makeup, we have to stop blaming them.”

Lehmann, 24, likes to look her best on and off the pitch and recently dazzled in an elegant black outfit.

She also wowed fans in a swanky outfit as she enjoyed a night out on the town.

Lehmann is one of the stars of the WSL and has 10 goals in 59 games for Aston Villa following spells at West Ham and Everton.
