Additional quotes by Ada Hegerberg

I take a lot of responsibility in terms of using my platform to carry the sport into the right direction. Because I know that you've had trailblazers before me. Pioneers, grandmothers, mothers. Amazing, badass women who fought for us to get to the place where we're at today, and I genuinely think that we need to carry that responsibility to make room for the next generation.

We need to put the same demands on young girls in order for them to feel seen. We don't take young girls as seriously as we do young boys. And as a footballer, I can see that the end product is not going to be the same quality as it is with the men. We're just behind, you know?
