But football was never my main goal as a kid, it was simply a joy, also because back then there weren’t many chances to make a living out of football… - Kenza Dali

I think if more women and athletes are vocal about equality and their rights, whether it’s in the business world or sports, having those kinds of strong characters can only lead to a better future. We need to speak up and demand more!

I was also very shy as a kid, but being part of a team made me socialize with other kids and open up as a person. I believe that I wouldn’t be the same person if it wasn’t for football.

It was a challenge every weekend but it allowed me to become stronger mentally, physically, and I believe it allowed me to quickly improve because I had to find ways to try to be better than the boys.
