Autocar's Great Women podcast: Manchester City women's football team

We chat to Steph Houghton, Demi Stokes and Esme Morgan about the rise of the women’s game, their heroes and why they’re confident for the future

Tune into our new series of Autocar podcasts, where this issue we talk to Manchester City’s Steph Houghton, Demi Stokes and Esme Morgan about their training regime, what it feels like to play in front of 30,000 fans and how your teammates react when you get your GCSE results on the way to a big game.

Houghton, Stokes and Morgan are three of the stars of the Manchester City women’s football team, with all three having won major trophies and also been heavily involved in the England set-up. Houghton is currently captain for both club and country, while Stokes has earned 56 caps for England. Morgan, despite only being 20, has been with Man City since she was 15 years old, in that time earning a Women’s FA Cup.
