The She Kicks Locker Room: The Menu with Abi Harrison (Bristol City)

Bristol City’s Scottish forward takes the magazine’s food questionnaire and answers it with some conviction. Avocado is out, on texture rather than taste; she used to hate fish and made herself eat it, but avocado is not for her. Her treat is Mexican – nachos, fajitas – though she loves pasta and will not turn down a Big Mac. The night before a game it is always a carby pasta, and afterwards she wants food as fast as she can get it, because she eats so little in the morning that she is starving by the final whistle. At half-time it is a sports drink, half a banana and a handful of Jelly Babies. In a shared house with team-mates who prefer mince and tatties, she is the one trying stir fries, and her signature is a spicy lasagne.
