00:00I think the adrenaline gets you but it's a it's a combination of a lot of things
00:05you know you playing for England is an enjoyable feeling but it's also a lot of
00:08pressure you hear people talk a lot of rubbish and you know it's nice that when
00:12you deliver you can give them a little bit back you know it's very difficult
00:16in press conferences and interviews and things like that to to talk as openly as
00:22footballers want to because they're always judged and for me football and
00:26being on the pitch scoring goals celebrating is my release and you know
00:29it's maybe a message to a few people but a very happy moment and full of
00:33adrenaline. Judah, you mentioned about the rubbish for a couple of times there just
00:37wondering what you meant by that and whether it's annoyed you. You know I mean
00:41by the rubbish you know I think like I said playing for England it's it should
00:45be one of the most proud things of footballers career but often at times it
00:51is quite difficult you know there's a really high intense pressure you know
00:56the the fans expect a lot from us regardless of kind of what happened in
01:00recent tournaments years and years ago so people talk a lot and you know I
01:06think you do have to take it personally a little bit you know we work so hard at
01:09this game we come in and we train every day so hard to try and put on
01:13performances for the fans and sometimes it doesn't go well and sometimes feels
01:17like there's a there's a bit of a pylon and it's not nice to hear but you can
01:21always use it and for moments like that it's it's nice to kind of throw it back
01:26to some people I suppose.
