Former England footballer Sue Smith looked back on her beginnings in an interview with Petr Cech and explained why Ryan Giggs became her hero. She also named her ideal football five in the programme.
Starting out with boys
There were no girls' teams in Sue Smith's area, so she started playing with boys at the age of five. Her brother, who is 11 years older than her, was among the boys she played with.
Sue Smith said: "I think I was about 15 or 16 when I realised that I was genuinely good at football. I knew I could play at a good level and represent my country."
Why Giggs was her hero
Sue Smith said: "There was hardly any women's football on television back then, so I didn't have a female role model. I watched men's football and Ryan Giggs was my hero."
Sue Smith said: "As a left winger, I loved dribbling and scoring goals, and nobody did it better than him. I was given a videotape of his highlights, and I used to train on the pitch between cones every day while watching it."
Her ideal football five
Sue Smith chose Petr Cech, Rio Ferdinand, Steven Gerrard and Cristiano Ronaldo in her ideal football five.
Sue Smith said: "As an Everton fan, this isn't easy for me to say, but I have to pick Steven Gerrard. When I thought about it, I told myself that my family might not even let me come home. But he was an incredible player and a true leader."
