Keira Walsh seems to be the latest victim of an ACL injury 😔 @CrosbyNicky and Jodie Taylor spoke to Keira's former physio @grant_downie to get the inside track on the prevalence of knee injuries in the women's game. #FIFAWWC23 #beINWWC23 #beINSPIRED

Over the last 35 years I have spent most weekends involved with professional football teams with the normal highs & lows of winning, losing & traveling to the next game in hope. Finally getting a better balance & having fun with Rufus

Totally agree Rebecca… I to have worked with both teams & as you put it so well they just express it differently at times. We have learn to listen & observe how we react differently & not tar as with one brush. I’m very happy to cry when upset… very normal for me!!!

😤 Having worked in international football with both men’s and women’s teams I can confirm that women are not more emotional than men! At times expressions of emotion may manifest differently across men and women but this is just as likely down to individual difference as gender.
