Jill Scott

One of England’s most decorated players, Jill Scott is one of the few Lionesses to have surpassed 150 caps. After featuring at nine major tournaments, she got a winners’ medal as part of the team who won EURO 2022 on home soil.

England career

An infectious character off the pitch, and a player for the big occasion on it, the influential midfielder stepped up to the plate whenever her country needed her most. Her England career was punctuated with some key strikes – the winner against Netherlands in the EURO 2009 semi-final, the equaliser against Belgium in EURO 2017 qualifying, and the finish in the 3-0 win over Wales which sealed England’s place at France 2019.

Beginnings

Jill began her career with her hometown Sunderland, before spending seven years at Everton and then joining City in 2013. She later had loan spells back at Everton and Aston Villa. She won her hundredth cap against Australia in 2015, before clocking up another fifty over the following six seasons. When Jill started the 3-0 win over Cameroon at France 2019, it was her eighteenth appearance at a World Cup final, the most of any England player in history.

Honours

Jill retired from football as the second-highest capped player. During her time in the game, she won every domestic honour. Including the Women’s Super League title with City, and four women’s FA Cups. Jill was voted FA Players’ Player of the Year and FA International Player of the Year. In the 2020 New Year’s Honours, Jill was awarded an MBE for the services she has made to women’s football. Most recently, Jill was part of the tournament-winning Lioness squad for Euro 2022, playing in the final alongside fellow midfielders Fran Kirby, Georgia Stanway and Leah Williamson. Following the team’s success, they received the profound Inspiration Awards at the 2022 Pride Awards.
