We want to be treated as professionals and like the male footballers.

I'm a professional footballer, and I get paid for doing my job.

For the women's team, our job is to be professional footballers for club and country and be the best role models we can be.

I've been playing semi-professional football since I was 14, really.

For me, it's about the tennis and the trophies. I'm not motivated by money.

Besides being a national level basketball champion, I have played a lot of other sports like volleyball, badminton, kho-kho, and kabbadi.

Off the pitch I've always believed it is healthy to switch off from football and have completely different interests too.

I think whenever you get out and do something different, like mountain biking or surfing, it just makes you more aware of your body and balance. For me, I've always loved anything that involved sports, so I've always just tried different things.
