One of the heroes of England’s Women's Euro 2022 triumph, Jill Scott, returned to work at her coffee shop Boxx2Boxx only five days after her country’s win. Scott’s coffee shop is based in Manchester, which she owns and runs with her partner Shelly Unitt.
The 35-year-old midfielder played a key role for England who beat Germany on Sunday (July 31) to win their first European title. Scott was brought on just before extra time in the final against Germany. She helped the Three Lionesses remain composed in possession and laid the foundation for Chloe Kelly’s 110th-minute winner.
Following the 2-1 win, the team partied well into the early hours of Monday morning. The former Manchester City midfielder was a part of the celebrations but soon returned to work at her coffee shop.
On Friday, Scott was back at her cozy little coffee shop Boxx2Boxx, and tweeted that she enjoyed touching base. She wrote:
“Back to reality, and I love it! Shift done at Boxx2boxx coffee shop ☕️ Thanks to everyone that came to say hello! Your support is really appreciated!”
As per the Sun, the England star carried her Euro winners medal all day and happily posed for pictures with fans.
