My guest today is Steph Houghton MBE, captain of the Lionesses and Man City. Steph’s represented her country at every level, with over 100 appearances for England.
Steph’s also led Man City to two Women's FA Cups, three Continental Cup successes and the FA Women's Super League title, as well as landing the PFA’s Merit Award in 2019.
Representing Team GB at the London 2012 Olympics, Steph became a household name by scoring in all three group matches, including the winning goals against New Zealand and Brazil.
Steph proudly led the Lionesses to their World Cup semi-final last year in France, watched at home by almost 12 million viewers.
I’m thrilled to say that once again, this series of The Game Changers is supported by Barclays and will focus on fearless women in football.
Thank you to Sport England who support The Game Changers Podcast with a National Lottery award.
