In 1999 when she was 22 she created a record in the Women's Euros when she scored four goals in a single match. The match was against Denmark at Lillestrom and the final score was 5-0.{{Cite web |last=UEFA.com |date=2022-07-11 |title=England set record for biggest win in Women's EURO history |url=https://www.uefa.com/womenseuro/news/0276-15748a7aea5d-461bff64a6c6-1000--england-set-record-for-biggest-win/ |access-date=2022-07-12 |website=UEFA |language=en}}
