“But I have a united group and a spirited group that fight their way through adversity and we held on through many difficult moments to stay in the game.“I felt during the last five minutes that we wanted a winner – I could sense it in them, so when Karen Carney dropped it in that space I knew there was only going to be one outcome.”

And Hayes had nothing but praise for those who came to watch their side in action.“I loved it,” she added. “I was humming the songs as the game went on.“It adds to the sport when we’re playing in front of crowds like that and I can only encourage and congratulate PSG for that because it certainly gave them a home advantage.”
