'I hate surprises but this one was alright'
Everton forward Rikke Madsen spoke to the BBC after her special comeback after giving birth to her daughter was capped off with a proposal from her boyfriend Martin: "I've been waiting for this moment for so long now. Ever since becoming pregnant I've been aiming to get back as quick as possible. I am very impatient. I have been so motivated to come back and play with this team, for this club.
"Today my little baby is turning five months so it is so nice to be back. Ending off with my boyfriend asking him to marry him, that was a little twist. I did not expect that.
"I had no idea I was going to come on and I had especially no idea he was going to propose to me. The first thing I said to the other girls was that I hate surprises, but this one was alright."
