I’d say one that pops up is my first ever goal for the senior team. We played Slovakia at home in a qualifier and I was only 16 at the time.I was nervous but so excited for the game as I felt no pressure, I was a flying winger at the time and I remember setting up the first goal and scoring the second. We won the game 2-1 and it was the first time my mum had seen me play for Northern Ireland so it was an extra special moment”.!START YOUR FREE MONTH TRIAL NOW!

My dog normally sets the pace and I end up chasing him”.“I have been challenging myself to find different ways to train having been limited to equipment. I am lucky enough I have a bike at home that I use on some days and I have been taking part in Joe Wick’s PE lessons to mix up my training”Furness dedicates her football adventure to her Brothers and Father when asked how got into the game she added.“I have two older brothers and my dad was football mad. I just wanted to do what my brother did so I was the annoying little sister that wanted to join in, from then on didn’t look back”.Furness has also had spells with Sunderland and Newcastle in addition to a spell with Grindavik in Iceland.
