I was embarrassed to be seen in my football tracksuit because they knew I'd been training. I used to cross the road to avoid people. It was really hard. There were so many awkward situations. I just hope young girls now are able to play football and not have to experience what I did.

I want to do the Atletico fans proud and hope that they will get behind me - together we can achieve great things.

There will have been girls my age who stopped playing because of the spiteful things that were said to them.
