Manchester United forward Alessia Russo believes her side's brilliant performance in the Women's Super League in which they've pushed Chelsea to the brink is "nothing short of what we deserve" and did not rule out a sensational final day trophy lift for Marc Skinner's side.
The 24-year-old was crowned the Player of the Year at the inaugural Women's Football Awards on Thursday night following an impressive season punctuated by her cheeky backheel at Euro2022 and 10 league goals to cut her a coveted talent in the women's game.
"I think tonight is really special to celebrate women’s football and everything that goes with it," Russo told the MEN. "Whether that’s brands, media. It’s a nice night where everyone can come together and support women and women’s football because it doesn’t often get recognised."
