Inside the Mind of Maya Le Tissier: A Catch Up with Lucy Bronze
Maya Le Tissier: Hey Lucy! It’s so good to finally catch up. We seem to always be running around the pitch or training these days!
Lucy Bronze: Hi Maya! Absolutely, it feels like the only downtime we get is when we’re on the bus to away games. How have you been? Settling in well?
Maya Le Tissier: Oh, definitely. It’s been an incredible journey so far. Sometimes I still can’t believe I’m here playing alongside you and the rest of the team. Dreams, you know.
Lucy Bronze: That’s amazing to hear. You’re doing a fantastic job, by the way. The fans and the team are really impressed. But, tell me, what’s been the biggest adjustment for you?
Maya Le Tissier: Right back at you, Lucy! I would say the pace and intensity of the training sessions. They’re on another level. But I love a challenge, so I’m soaking it all in. How do you keep up that energy, though? You’ve been killing it for years.
Lucy Bronze: Haha, thanks, Maya. Honestly, it’s all about finding that balance between work and rest, hydration, and making the most out of recovery sessions. Also, a cheeky nap here and there does wonders! But, enough about me. What about you? Any pre-match rituals?
Maya Le Tissier: You bet! I always listen to my hype playlist before a game – a mix of old school rock and some current hits. It really gets me in the zone. What about you? Any weird rituals?
Lucy Bronze: Oh, that sounds awesome. I’m not sure about ‘weird,’ but I do have this thing where I absolutely need to have my left boot on before my right. It’s a bit superstitious but hey, it works for me!
Maya Le Tissier: That’s so cool! Superstitions sometimes make the game even more interesting. Speaking of interesting, any memorable match moment that stands out to you?
Lucy Bronze: There have been so many, but I’d say winning the Champions League was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere, the competition, everything about it was just surreal. How about you? Any game that has a special place in your heart?
Maya Le Tissier: Definitely my debut match in the WSL. It was just a whirlwind of emotions, and the support from everyone was phenomenal. Scoring that first goal was just the cherry on top.
Lucy Bronze: That must have been incredible. You’ve got such a bright future ahead, Maya. I’m really looking forward to seeing you grow and achieve even greater heights. Keep pushing and keep enjoying every moment.
Maya Le Tissier: Thanks, Lucy. That means a lot coming from you. I’m so grateful to be part of this journey with such amazing teammates. Here’s to more wins and making more memories together!
Lucy Bronze: Absolutely, Maya. Here’s to smashing it on and off the pitch! Cheers!
