Rachel Corsie, the captain of Scotland's women's national football team, announced her retirement at 35 after battling chronic pain and injuries throughout her career. Having played 19 years and achieving great success, including 154 caps, Corsie reflects on her journey with gratitude and emphasizes her genuine love for the sport, which motivated her to persist despite significant physical challenges. She plans to retire after key matches in the Women's Nations League, marking a poignant end to her impressive journey in professional football.
My body has really wanted this to be my last year but my heart and my head have been stubborn and said I'm not quite ready.
To get to do that as a professional, I massively treasure that. That's why I've been able to give my all to it, because I have a genuine love for football.
