Description

Before the Team GB women's hockey began their defence of the Olympic gold medal they won at the Rio 2016 Games, Blood Red caught with squad member and big Liverpool fan, Sarah Evans. Speaking with Guy Clarke, Evans explains how the team have trained for the postponed Games, including how they looked to recreate the conditions they will face in Tokyo. Plus, she explains her love for Liverpool, and speaks about the impact of playing without spectators as an elite sports professional will have had on Jurgen Klopp's side last season. As well as that, the growth of women’s sport and importance of diversity within sports is also discussed, including her work with Women’s Sport Trust’s UNLOCKED programme.Sign up to our Olympics newsletter for the latest from Tokyo 2020: https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/sign-up-olympics-newsletter-latest-24542078
