Lee Gibson

Club

Gibson played for Glasgow City for five years, winning fourteen trophies including four consecutive domestic trebles, before signing a full-time professional contract with Swedish Damallsvenskan club Mallbackens IF in December 2015. She rejoined Glasgow City in December 2016. She helped City progress to the quarter-finals of the 2019–20 UEFA Women's Champions League by saving three of four kicks in a penalty shootout against Brondby.

International

Gibson was first called up to the full Scotland squad in November 2015 for a Euro 2017 qualifying match against Macedonia. Still uncapped, she was named in the Scotland squad for the Euro 2017 finals. Alexander became the first choice goalkeeper for Scotland after Euro 2017, when Gemma Fay retired. Her international debut came in a 3–0 friendly victory over Hungary in Telki on 14 September 2017, and she helped the team qualify for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup. An important moment in the qualifying group was when Gibson saved a penalty kick against Poland. Scotland were eliminated in the group stage of the World Cup, with Gibson playing in all three matches. In the third match, which Scotland had to win to progress, she initially saved a penalty but a retake was ordered by VAR as she had moved her feet off the goal line. The retaken penalty was scored and Scotland, who had led 3–0, could only draw 3–3 with Argentina.
