I think I\u2019m in love with JJ, the UK\u2019s first hijab-wearing and female referee who\u2019s got her sights set on reffing the world\u2019s biggest games. The Somali refugee spent her teens hiding her love of football from her family for cultural reasons, but now she\u2019s proudly changing stereotypes and thrashing barriers on the pitch as she coaches, plays and refs all around the world.
