The Lioness was honoured with the Sportsperson award at the ceremony, which recognises the outstanding achievements of women across the industries.

A man nearby helped her while the athlete tugged on the material until it came free, causing Alessia to burst into giggles.

‘But it’s amazing, for women’s football, to see how far it’s grown and where the game is today and how we’re pushing it forward.”
Alessia added: ‘If we’re inspiring the next generation we’re doing the right thing.’
