Izzy Christiansen: ‘Competition was just absorbing me’
Former England, Manchester City & Everton Midfielder Izzy Christiansen speaks about her football career.
She told 5 Live’s Adrian Chiles: “I spoke a lot with the sport psychologist towards the end of my career around finding more enjoyment in the process rather than competition. Competition was just absorbing me to a point it was draining me.â€
“If you can achieve a really nice balance of enjoyment and competition, the future could be very bright for young sports people.â€
