Euro 2022: England hero Jill Scott returns to ‘reality’ by working in coffee shop

Following England’s Euro 2022 victory at Wembley, Lionesses hero Jill Scott celebrated her triumphant return to Manchester in unconventional fashion –– by working a shift at her coffee shop. 

Just five days on from England’s historic win against Germany, the Man City star returned home and got behind the counter at Boxx2boxx coffee in Northenden. 

Posting on social media, Scott shared a photo of herself holding a dustpan and brush, along with the caption: “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.”

Scott also took her medal with her and let young fans hold it as she took photos with them.

“The most important things in life have always been family, football and coffee,” it reads on the Boxx2boxx website.
