The She Kicks Locker Room: The Before & After with Jess Fishlock

Wales international Jess Fishlock, back in Frankfurt preparing for the second half of the German season before heading straight to Seattle for the NWSL campaign, takes the magazine through her matchday. Her pre-match food depends on where in the world she is, though egg is a constant and her favourite is the Seattle breakfast of eggs, bacon and pancakes with maple syrup. Whether or not she has played well, she watches film and analyses afterwards, on the basis that nobody plays a perfect match and knowing how to move on keeps you going forward. She refuses to single out characters in either the Reign or Wales camp, describing a dog-loving Seattle dressing room she rates the best she has known, and calls post-match brunch a breakfast of kings.
