In a particularly star-studded pic, McCabe smiled alongside Beth Mead, Steph Catley, girfriend Caitlin Foord….and Dua Lipa herself.

The multi-time Grammy Award winner blew fans away at a pair of shows at Wembley before linking up with McCabe and co.

She captioned the photo alongside the Grammy Award winner by calling it a “beautiful night with the gyaldem”

Beth Mead hailed it as “The best night” while Ireland teammate Kyra Carus said: “UMM CASUALLLL”

Arsenal FC got in on the act by sharing the pic which they called: “Dua Lipa vibes 🤩🎶

By and large, fans on Instagram were blown away by the line-up.

One joked: “The best singer in this picture ain’t Dua Lipa though” and a second hailed: “Now that’s a gang I wanna be a part of!”

A third said: “i think my two worlds have just merged wtaf!!!!!” and a fourth commented: “What in the multiverse”

A fifth said: “What kind of multiverse is this” and a sixth said: “I LOVE THIS CROSSOVER”

McCabe has had a busy summer both on and off the pitch.


Her trip to Wembley Stadium came after she returned home from a sun-soaked holiday to Ibiza.

McCabe and several of her Arsenal teammates went to the Spanish resort to celebrate helping the Gunners win the Champions League.

The 29-year-old shared a host of pics from the holiday to Instagram, labelling the holiday a “beautiful week with beautiful people”.

Alongside a pic of her with her beloved partner Foord, she shared pics with the likes of fellow Ireland stars Jessie Stapleton and Grace Moloney.

It was a well-earned getaway after what was a relentless and hectic end of the club and international campaign for the Dubliner.

On May 24, she and Arsenal shocked Barcelona to win the Champions League final.

The Gunners enjoyed the celebrations afterwards, with McCabe taking centre stage at the Emirates Stadium homecoming.

However, less than a week later, she was back in Ireland camp for the Nations League double header against Turkey and Slovenia.

McCabe was Player of the Match in the former, just six days after her Champions League heroics, but lashed out at the football calendar in the build-up to the latter.

The 29-year-old insisted: “It’s the whole calendar. I don’t know who’s in charge of it but it definitely needs to be looked at.

“What it will create over time, and we’ve already seen it in recent years, is burnout in players and major injuries.

“You’ve got world-class players that will be sitting out tournaments through injuries. We don’t want to see that.

“We want the best players in the world playing at tournaments on the biggest stage. I just hope it doesn’t cause too much more harm to us as players going forward.

“Like what we had to do last year, all through the summer, where you’re finishing a season and you’ve to kind of rest but kind of keep fit for the next block of games.

“It’s hard mentally and physically, from a periodisation point of view, to do that. So the timing of the fixtures needs to be looked at.”

The workload has taken its toll, with McCabe being left out of the Ireland squad for a pair of summer friendlies against the USA.
