Reece James and his sister Lauren James recently made history as the first sister and brother to appear for the England men's and women's national teams.

Reece has been a member of Gareth Southgate's squad since 2020 after shining under Frank Lampard. Lauren made her debut this year in a match against Austria in a World Cup qualification match.

Lauren moved from Manchester United women last summer to Chelsea, where she has since been handed the number 10 jersey by Emma Hayes.

While Reece is a right-back, probably the best in the world at the moment, Lauren is an offensive player, often playing as a winger.

A video compilation by a Twitter user, @TF190512, shows striking similarities between the two siblings in their style of play.

Reece's physicality is one of his biggest strongholds as he uses it to brush off opponents. The same can be said about Lauren, who is not afraid to throw herself at opponents as she shields the ball.

The compilation was made from Chelsea Women's shock opening day defeat to newly-promoted side Liverpool.
