Quotes
- “You have to stand there against people who are probably not supporting women's football and tell them you need more money. That, in itself, takes a lot of guts. At that point, it wasn't easy to win people over.”
- “Expectations and perceptions have changed around women's football, but they will know that they'll have to play their part in increasing the popularity of the game.”
- “How that will inspire so many young girls and boys to talk about women's football and make it the norm.”
- “It's looking positive, but it's probably a similar thing with both the men and women's team, they need to have a stronger mentality of knowing they have to win.”
- “For players of my generation – and before – there wasn’t money in the game. You were doing it because of your passion.”
- “I think every female footballer can relate to a woman working in a male-dominated area and championing it. We need to make sure that we support each other.”
