Transcript

00:00I feel very proud to be here today, collecting my second Ballon d'Or.

00:07I always talk about my mentality. I think it is unique and necessary to continue progressing in the world of football.

00:14I am 26 years old, I am young, I consider myself young. I hope to continue fighting for many more years.

00:31It is very nice to walk down the street and see children wearing your jersey.

00:36I also talk about children because it is curious how things have changed in such a short time.

00:42I was a little girl and I didn't see that on the street. I only saw girls wearing children's jerseys.

01:00Little girls can look ahead and see a profession of being a footballer, which I didn't see.

01:07That is very nice, even though they will continue to have problems or bumps along the way.

01:13But at least now you can be a 10-year-old girl and say, I want to be a footballer, because the possibility really exists.
