Jill subsequently admitted that she felt under immense pressure heading into the trial.
She said: “I did actually feel the pressure coming into this. It’s all on you to get stars for camp.”
Meanwhile, Jill explained earlier this week how she hopes to help the next generation of female soccer stars.
During a conversation with Seann, Jill said: “I’d watch [David] Beckham do a trick or [Steven] Gerrard do something and I’d just be practising for hours.
“I was literally in the back lanes just with my ball all day all night until my mum would shout, ‘Jill it’s time for your tea’ and then I’d be back out again because I wanted to perfect this skill.
“And now I’ll put on my own soccer camps and the girls have the female players on the back of their shirt.”
