L’ex-capitaine des Lionesses Faye White a encensé Lucy Bronze pour ses performances en demi-finale contre la Suède, et plus généralement pour son impact sur le football féminin anglais. White a révélé avoir envoyé un message à l’agent de Bronze pour saluer son “attitude de gagnante” et sa détermination à toute épreuve, allant jusqu’à la qualifier de “meilleure joueuse anglaise depuis Kelly Smith”.
00:00Actually, after the Sweden game, obviously, she scored the header and then the penalty.
00:07I actually text her agent, who I know well, and just said she was unbelievable.
00:15She, again, showed that she's a winner and so determined in that never-give-up attitude.
00:21And I said to her, please tell her after the tournament that I believe she's the best player since Kelly Smith for England.
00:27Because it's that unique ability for a player to be able to perform at the best.
00:34Obviously, serial winner at club level as well.
00:37And in those moments, kind of just say, I will do whatever it takes for England.
00:43Yeah, that to come out afterwards, I'm like, doesn't surprise me.
00:46I just was like, that's what she will do.
00:49She knows because she started her journey back in 2007 playing for Sunderland.
00:54And then obviously, and so she knows where the game's come from.
00:58And that fighting spirit of trying to get the game recognised, trying to get, you know, prove the doubters wrong, trying to get more profile, everything.
01:07It's just been a fight and a slog her whole career, really.
