Jill Scott's mum has paid an emotional tribute to the Manchester City star after her role in the Lionesses’ European Championships success.
Sarina Wiegman’s side ended their long wait for a major honour against Germany - with the nation lifting their first trophy since 1966. Whilst the success was a remarkable achievement for every member of the Lionesses squad, it would certainly have been satisfying for Scott.
The 35-year-old has been part of the England set-up since 2006 and had previously earned a runners-up medal at the 2009 edition of the tournament, whilst she was also part of the squad that finished third at the Women’s World Cup in Canada seven years ago.
