Former Arsenal player Alex Scott, who scored the winning goal in 2007, spoke with Czech journalist Kristina Němcová about the start of the Champions League, her dreams, and the growth of women’s football.
- In interview about the new era of UWCL, Scott emphasizes the importance of broadcasting every match, not just the latter stages, so that smaller clubs and lesser-known players also get attention and recognition.
- Scott applauds the new partnership with Disney+, noting that global streaming allows fans everywhere—even in countries without a local club in the competition—to tune in and be inspired.
- She reflects on her own playing days, acknowledging that while she dreamt of big stages, she could not have foreseen the scale women’s football would achieve today.
- Scott cites Arsenal’s run last season—defeating favorites like Barcelona—as evidence of just how open and unpredictable the tournament can be.
