00:00Listen, I'm such a Camden girl and I'm so happy to be back in Camden. You'll probably

00:08see that, the smile that's on my face. This is my home and I'm very much looking forward

00:13to an amazing week with my team at Tottenham Hotspur and to coach at the iconic Wembley

00:21Stadium at the weekend. I knew it was what I wanted and I knew the sacrifices I made

00:27in my life to get to where I am. I know how many weddings I've missed, how many birthday

00:34parties I've missed, how many holidays I've missed, I know how many nights out I've missed.

00:43My friends will tell you that, my family will tell you that, sat in the room, Emma always

00:46put football first and sometimes I'm not always proud of that. And it was lonely, many times

00:56it was really lonely because I had a dream for the game, not for myself, I had a dream

01:02for women's football that I've been able to live and I'm just so grateful that I was pushed

01:13by my parents and my family to be able to do that and without them supporting me to

01:19help with Harry and everything like that I definitely wouldn't have done it. But I haven't

01:25finished either, there's more I want to achieve in the game and I want to make sure I give

01:30everything I've got because this is one of my purposes to being on this planet and I

01:37intend to fulfil it with the force that I know I can be. Like I said, I work every day

01:45so that I can build women's sport, women's football. 80,000 plus, I'm sure a lot of people

01:52around the world will be watching the game, two top teams, under the lights at Wembley,

02:04be coming back Olympic champions, European champions, I hope it's a night to remember.
