"I think it's still mad and it always will be that people are recognising me when I'm walking down the street," says Ella Toone, the Manchester United forward who set England on their way to glory in this summer's European Championships.
Toone came into the Euro 2022 tournament on the back of a fine individual season for Manchester United Women, earning her an England squad place for a home Euros. While she wasn't an automatic starter for Sarina Wiegman's side, she came off the bench in each game and scored a decisive equaliser in the semi-final win over Spain to force extra time.
Her most memorable moment, though, came in the final, with England locked in a stalemate with Germany. When former Manchester City midfielder Keira Walsh sent a sublime ball forward, Toone timed her run perfectly, kept calm, and sent a sensational chip over the advancing goalkeeper and into the far corner.
