"Lucy Bronze marked her 142nd England cap with a goal and an assist on the same day she celebrated her 34th birthday, as the Lionesses beat Australia 30. Now England's fourth-most capped player, overtaking Alex Scott in the recent international break, Bronze continues to defy age and injury to remain at the top of women's football. With five Champions League titles, four Women's Super League trophies and two European Championships to her name,"
"Alongside her five Ballon d'Or nominations, Bronze also became the first defender to win both UEFA Women's Player of the Year (2019) and FIFA Women's Player of the Year (2020). On winning FIFA Player of the Year 2020, Bronze said: I didn't really think about the awards I was getting, being the first English player or the first defender. It only sunk in more recently. An individual award isn't going to change my life though - I'd much rather have all of the Champions Leagues and the Euros."
