Alexia reaction
“It a real treat to be able to share the trophy cabinet with these great legends from the club and also to see that the section for the women's team is filling up - let's hope we have to make it bigger."
"I would like them to remember me as someone who gave everything for the club that I love, someone who did not rest until they had achieved all the challenges we have had as a team, to win everything, every season."
