If that was the men you wouldnt be saying that. Duggan, 27, also wants to see a more raucous atmosphere around grounds when women are competing in this country, citing her contrasting experiences of playing in showpiece finals in both England and Spain.I played at the Wanda [Metropolitano in March] with 60,000 people for Barcelona against Atletico Madrid and we broke the record for attendance at a womens game, Duggan explained.Theres a picture of me celebrating and behind me theres a man putting one finger up.
