After her World Cup performance, Cortnee Vine could have set off overseas. But the Matildas’ forward had no doubt in her mind about staying in the A-League.
in the World Cup quarter-final her life changed forever. Now, she can’t even walk down the street without someone recognising her.
Since scoring the winning penalty in the Matildas’ World Cup game against France, Cortnee Vine’s life has changed.“I love Australia, I love Sydney, I have a life here that’s not just football,” Vine said. But Vine said more needed to be done to keep players in the domestic competition, and said it was important fans could see their World Cup heroes in Australian stadiums.
“And by doing that we need to make it full-time, we need to pay better and be more professional in this league. It’s getting there, but it still needs so much more work, and that’s why those girls have left, and stayed away because those leagues are professional, they pay a lot more than this league, and I just think once we start fixing that they will start to come back.“But I think it’s so important for our faces to be here.
