33-year-old defender Lucy Bronze has been at the heart of the England team for over a decade, with 140 caps so far. She played a crucial role in helping the Lionesses win back-to-back European titles - somehow managing to play the entire tournament in Switzerland with a broken leg. Shirts with her name on the back are amongst the most commonly worn by England fans, a testament to her contribution to the growth of the women's game. On today's episode, Niall Paterson learns about Bronze's work ethic and the challenges she's overcome, with former teammate Lianne Sanderson and Sky News sports presenter Jacquie Beltrao.
