Rose Reilly: the "wee lassie" from Scotland who won the World Cup - a podcast by The Football Pink

Picture the scene: it's the end of the World Cup final, and the trophy is being lifted aloft by the finest team on the planet after a 3-1 final victory over West Germany. Wrapped around the trophy are two Scottish hands, surely the dream of every supporter in Caledonia. But these hands do not belong to Rachel Corsie, Andy Robertson or any of their illustrious predecessors as captains of the Scottish national teams. They belong to Rose Reilly, an Ayrshire lassie who has played so well for her team that she is voted player of the tournament. Sadly for the Scots, she is wearing the colours of Italy. Join host Roddy Cairns (@RoddyGCairns) and Kirsty McLeod (@kmcleodr) for the story of Rose Reilly, the globetrotting Scot who lifted international football's biggest prize.
