"I'm really, really happy considering some of the teams we've played and some of the teams that have finished in the top six. There's an incredible history in this sport in the Champions League and we haven't got that. So we're creating that and to do that and finish sixth is ... I've not taken it in yet. But I know I'll sit on the plane home and be really proud of everyone involved in all the things we're trying to achieve."
"It was an incredible moment. I really enjoyed it. A good finish as well, which I was proud of. All the girls fought and I'm proud of the whole team. We've made history as a team. We've done it together. We've made a really big step."
