VIDEO: Alessia Russo admits to crazy pre-match superstition as well as revealing Lionesses' dressing-room DJ and her best-ever goal

The 25-year-old, who joined Arsenal from Manchester United last summer, has revealed her unusual pre-game ritual and also opened up about the best goal she has ever scored and who controls the music in the England dressing room.

Speaking to ITV, Russo was asked some personal questions including her favourite goal, her pre-match superstition and the dressing-room DJ in the England camp. She said, "My gameday superstition is I jump seven times before the whistle blows. Don't know why, don't know where it came from but somehow it stuck."

Regarding her best-ever goal, the striker added, "The best goal I've ever scored was against Northern Ireland in the Euros."

When asked who controls the music in the Lionesses' dressing room, Russo said, "The player who controls the music in the dressing room is Leah (Williamson). Although I do, do it on the bus but Leah takes control on the gameday. And she is been loving, we've all been loving Fairground by Simply Red. It's the team favourite at the moment. "

The England international has enjoyed a fine form in north London in her maiden season as she netted six Women's Super League goals and 10 overall in 26 appearances for the Gunners. She is currently the club's second-highest goalscorer in the current campaign behind Stina Blackstenius.

Russo will be next seen in action for Arsenal on Sunday as they take on Bristol City in an important league clash.
