The Foden-Inspired Celebration

After scoring in the 15th minute and setting the tone for the match, James acknowledged Foden's influence on her celebratory style.

Speaking about her performance, and specifically the 'free role' she took on in the game, she said, ": "I think everyone loves me to have freedom but those behind me make sure I’m doing my job defensively and if I’m doing my job defensively, they say: ‘Do what you want’."
