After being named in the FIFPRO World XI, Alessia Russo spoke to us about how honoured she was to be a part of The Best FIFA Football Awards.
Alessia attended the ceremony at the Hammersmith Apollo for FIFA's version of the Ballon d'Or, where she was joined by teammate Amanda Ilestedt who had also been on the shortlist, manager Jonas Eidevall and Sporting Director Edu.
Our cameras were also there to bring you behind-the-scenes footage, and chat with a thrilled Alessia who reflected on being named one of the best forwards during the last 12 months, following her exploits for club and country.
