FOOTBALL fans didn’t get their words in a twist as they praised a multi-lingual, lingerie model with a law degree likened to Laura Woods.
Eva Murati was called the “Queen of Europe” and the “most gorgeous woman ever” as the Albanian led Tring TV’s Champions League coverage.
The actress has been labelled her country’s version of TNT Sport’s popular presenter Woodsy.
And she achieved the considerable feat of diverting attention – in the eyes of many viewers – from Bayern Munich’s 2-2 draw with Real Madrid.
Eva shared studio pictures of herself in a purple jumpsuit to welcome the absorbing night of semi-final first-leg action.
“She is a unique beauty and this is her stage,” responded one observer.
“You are one reason why the Champions League is great,” said another.
And there was no statute of limitation on the compliments flowing in for the 28-year-old, who got a law degree from Albania’s University of Tirana.
“Eva is the most gorgeous woman ever,” was another verdict on a host fluent in English, Italian and Spanish, as well as speaking some French.
A fourth fan posted: “Look at the beauty – the most beautiful Eva Murati.”

As if she didn’t have enough strings to her bow, Eva is also a great singer and has hinted she might even release a song one day.

And a fifth suggested: “You are one of the reasons why the Champions League is great.”
Eva is now up to 930,000 Instagram followers, compared to 754k for 36-year-old journalism graduate Laura.
It came on the night Arsenal fan Woodsy highlighted the warmer weather by wearing a sleeveless, knee-length dress at Bayern’s Allianz Arena.
One fan reacted on X: “Wasn’t even going to watch the Champions League tonight but then I saw Laura Woods and now I am.”
Few would disagree that Eva and Laura are judged two of the most appreciated talents in sports broadcasting right now.
But after the stalemate in Germany the jury is still out on Bayern striker Harry Kane’s chances of finally earning some silverware, despite his goal.
