She has admitted that “storytelling” in football is “powerful” due to the risk and reward on the pitch. She told The Athletic: “I feel like sports is entertainment. “Storytelling through soccer is so powerful because the stakes are so high. “The drama of winning and losing, injuries, firing a coach, bringing in a new player — the excitement is built-in drama. “You could never write this.
