Last updated on .From the section Women 's Football '' In five years ' time , I want a big trophy under my belt .
Whether it 's a World Cup , an Olympic gold or a Champions League medal . ''
Somewhere on it , though , would be the name Jordyn Huitema , of Paris St-Germain .
`` I really want to take the next few years to develop and become the best player I can , '' the 19 year-old tells BBC Sport from her training base in Paris .
`` Really honing my skills to become @ @ @ @ @ @ @ world - if not the best forward . ''
The Canadian is barely two years into her professional career but it 's one full of potential , with the international goalscoring statistics to match .
Eleven goals in 19 games at under-15 level ; 20 in 29 at under-17 ; nine in 15 at under-20 ; and then 13 in 32 at senior level .
Huitema told BBC Sport about her early career , joining PSG , how the women 's game needs more respect , and her `` extremely competitive '' relationship @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Davies .
Huitema signed for Paris St-Germain in 2019 but her footballing journey began nearly 5,000 miles away in Chilliwack , British Columbia , Canada .
`` It 's a really small place , '' Huitema says of Chilliwack , `` so if you knew someone who knew someone , you knew the whole city .

`` Even some of my team-mates would have something to say if I started a match or played more minutes than them .
There @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of just silenced them with my performances , '' Huitema smiles .
The Canadian realised just how much potential she had a few years later .
Aged 12 , she travelled with her squad to a tournament in Seattle .
In one game , she scored a consolation goal in a 7-1 defeat against a team called Surrey United - making such an impression , several opposition coaches approached her dad .
Huitema ended up joining Surrey , also from British Columbia , and a few months later she got a call up @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just 12 .
Often the youngest player in each age group , she progressed to a full international debut as a 15-year-old .
'They came to watch someone else' Huitema 's big break came while she was on international duty at the Algarve Cup in Portugal .
A representative from PSG was in the stands and it took just 20 minutes to convince them she was the real deal .
`` We were playing against Japan and I think I got subbed on to the pitch after , like , 70 minutes , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the club was there to watch my [ Canada and PSG ] team-mate Ashley Lawrence .
`` After the game , he came to find me .
He and my agent started talking and it kind of just went from there . ''
Knowing she was about to make a huge leap in terms of technical ability and general level of play , Huitema was keen to impress , and spent several months training with PSG before she was eligible to play .
She says : `` I was at the point in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ me enough .
I 'd say to this day it 's an amazing environment for young people to progress in , but I wanted to thrive so I came to Paris . ''
Huitema is an integral part of the current PSG women 's team , helping them reach last year 's Champions League semi-final in which they lost 1-0 to eventual winners Lyon .
`` I still think to this day I 'm playing catch-up , these women are some of the best players in the world .
When I came in @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were going everywhere .
I 'm sure everyone was so frustrated with me because I just could n't hold my own , '' she says .
A growing star in her own right , the 19-year-old forward often crosses paths with the stars from the men 's team at official club events .
`` I met Neymar for the first time like a couple of weeks ago and I did n't even know how to react .
I tried to play it off cool but I definitely did n't .
I feel like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just talking about it , '' she says .
Huitema signed a four-year deal with PSG and says she wants to use her profile to inspire others and help grow the women 's game .
`` I definitely say we 're nowhere near where we deserve from a respect point , '' she says .
`` I think there are some women out there who have accomplished some incredible things and it kind of gets swept under the mat because they are female . ''

Jordyn Huitema talks about her unique rise to the Canada senior team.
"In five years' time, I want a big trophy under my belt. Whether it's a World Cup, an Olympic gold or a Champions League medal."
There are plenty of footballers with such career aspirations. However, the list of those capable of turning the dream into reality is perhaps a very small one.
Somewhere on it, though, would be the name Jordyn Huitema, of Paris St-Germain.
"I really want to take the next few years to develop and become the best player I can," the 19 year-old tells BBC Sport from her training base in Paris.
"Really honing my skills to become one of the best forwards in the world - if not the best forward."
The Canadian is barely two years into her professional career but it's one full of potential, with the international goalscoring statistics to match. Eleven goals in 19 games at under-15 level; 20 in 29 at under-17; nine in 15 at under-20; and then 13 in 32 at senior level.
Huitema told BBC Sport about her early career, joining PSG, how the women's game needs more respect, and her "extremely competitive" relationship with Bayern Munich's Canadian star Alphonso Davies.
'Why's there a girl in a jersey?'
Huitema signed for Paris St-Germain in 2019 but her footballing journey began nearly 5,000 miles away in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada.
"It's a really small place," Huitema says of Chilliwack, "so if you knew someone who knew someone, you knew the whole city.
"But that was amazing because you get to be so close with everyone, including family and friends."
Although rich in community spirit, Huitema's town lacked the competitive edge she yearned for even at a young age.
She joined a boys' team aged 10, because playing for a local girls' team "wasn't competitive enough".
"It was unheard of at the time. I remember everyone giving me weird looks when I showed up at training. I'd turn up to matches and I'd hear people say, 'Why's there a girl in a jersey?'
"Even some of my team-mates would have something to say if I started a match or played more minutes than them. There were stares and comments but I kind of just silenced them with my performances," Huitema smiles.

In one game, she scored a consolation goal in a 7-1 defeat against a team called Surrey United - making such an impression, several opposition coaches approached her dad.
Huitema ended up joining Surrey, also from British Columbia, and a few months later she got a call up to the Canada Under-15s squad, aged just 12. Often the youngest player in each age group, she progressed to a full international debut as a 15-year-old.
'They came to watch someone else'
Huitema said "one day I'd love to" when asked about playing in the UK, praising the fanbase
Huitema's big break came while she was on international duty at the Algarve Cup in Portugal.
A representative from PSG was in the stands and it took just 20 minutes to convince them she was the real deal.
"We were playing against Japan and I think I got subbed on to the pitch after, like, 70 minutes," she says. "Someone from the club was there to watch my [Canada and PSG] team-mate Ashley Lawrence.
"After the game, he came to find me. He and my agent started talking and it kind of just went from there."
Knowing she was about to make a huge leap in terms of technical ability and general level of play, Huitema was keen to impress, and spent several months training with PSG before she was eligible to play.
She says: "I was at the point in Vancouver where it just wasn't pushing me enough. I'd say to this day it's an amazing environment for young people to progress in, but I wanted to thrive so I came to Paris."
Huitema is an integral part of the current PSG women's team, helping them reach last year's Champions League semi-final in which they lost 1-0 to eventual winners Lyon.
"I still think to this day I'm playing catch-up, these women are some of the best players in the world. When I came in I was pretty atrocious, my touches were going everywhere. I'm sure everyone was so frustrated with me because I just couldn't hold my own," she says.
Meeting Neymar and respect for women's game
Huitema wants to help grow the women's game
A growing star in her own right, the 19-year-old forward often crosses paths with the stars from the men's team at official club events.
"I met Neymar for the first time like a couple of weeks ago and I didn't even know how to react. I tried to play it off cool but I definitely didn't. I feel like I'm turning red right now even just talking about it," she says.
Huitema signed a four-year deal with PSG and says she wants to use her profile to inspire others and help grow the women's game.
"I definitely say we're nowhere near where we deserve from a respect point," she says.
"I think there are some women out there who have accomplished some incredible things and it kind of gets swept under the mat because they are female."
'Me and Alphonso are two big personalities'
Off the field, Huitema has been dating Bayern Munich and fellow Canada international Alphonso Davies for four years.
The pair regularly star together in viral videos and have a joint Youtube channel.
"We were talking about it for a while and it started as a joke. We're two pretty big personalities and we wanted to show people that this is really the way we are," she says.
"I feel like most of our conversations are less about football and more just about life. I feel we're a big support system for each other."
The pair recently revealed that they started dating after meeting at the training facility they share while on international duty.
Huitema reveals that after six months of dating, Davies asked, 'Do you want to be Alphonso Davies' girlfriend?'
Despite describing the line as "bad", she still agreed.
And date nights are extremely competitive.
"When we were younger, we went on a lot of bowling dates," she says. "I'm really bad at bowling so he'd always win. But if we go ice skating, I grew up playing hockey so I'm obviously better at that.
"We even have a competition going over goals [scored]. He won a Golden Boot, then I won one, then I won another one, but since then he's been moved to full-back. So he's like, 'This isn't fair, I'm playing defence.'
"And I'm like, 'Sorry that's not my job.'"

Coleman became the sixth-fastest man in history in 2019
World 100m champion Christian Coleman has been banned for two years after missing three drugs tests.
The 24-year-old American, who is suspended from 14 May 2020, will miss the postponed Tokyo Olympics next year.
Coleman won 100m gold at the World Championships in Doha in 2019.
Representative Emanuel Hudson confirmed the indoor 60m world record holder will appeal against the Athletics Integrity Unit's (AIU) ruling to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas).
Hudson described the decision as "unfortunate", adding: "Mr Coleman has nothing further to say until such time as the matter can be heard in the court of jurisdiction."
Two-time world champion Coleman, who also won 4x100m relay gold in Doha, has 30 days to file an appeal.
He was provisionally suspended in June after missing a third test in December 2019.
Three whereabouts failures in a 12-month period can result in a ban of up to two years.
Coleman did not contest his first missed test on 16 January 2019 but disputed his filing failure on 26 April 2019 and whereabouts failure on 9 December.
The investigation into his rule violations said there was no suggestion he had ever taken a banned substance.
However, Coleman's attitude towards his anti-doping obligations was described as "entirely careless, perhaps even reckless" by the AIU.
According to the AIU's out-of-competition testing guidelines, athletes are accountable for missed tests if they are not at their specified location for the one-hour period they have stated. The tester must wait for the full 60 minutes before leaving.
Coleman said he was Christmas shopping "five minutes away" from home, and that the tester made no effort to contact him during his third whereabouts failure.
He also said on social media external-link that he would be "willing to take a drug test every single day for the rest of my career" to prove his innocence.
Doping control officers said they waited outside for a full hour, ringing and knocking every 10 minutes.
The AIU said shopping receipts belonging to Coleman suggested he was "obviously" not at his home for the entirety of the one-hour period.
Coleman said he returned home before the one-hour period ended at 8:15pm because he "recalled watching the kick-off of the Monday night football game".
However, the AIU said receipts showed Coleman purchased items at 7:53pm and 8:22pm and that it was "simply impossible" for him to have returned home in between, while the officers took a photo of his residence at 8:21pm to show it was empty before leaving.
The US Anti-Doping Agency (Usada) initially charged Coleman with missing three drugs tests in 12 months, before his world 100m victory in September 2019.
It withdrew the case after it was proved there had been a filing irregularity regarding the date of the first missed test.

Diogo Jota scored the 10,000th goal in all competitions in Liverpool's 128-year history
Liverpool moved two points clear at the top of Group D with victory over Champions League rookies FC Midtjylland on a night their defensive problems mounted with the loss of Fabinho to injury.
The Brazilian, who has slotted in alongside Joe Gomez in the centre of defence since the loss of Virgil van Dijk to a serious knee injury on 17 October, had to be replaced after suffering a suspected hamstring injury.
Starting without influential forwards Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino, Liverpool failed to register an attempt on target in the first half.
They broke the deadlock after Trent Alexander-Arnold played a neat one-two with Xherdan Shaqiri, the former teeing-up Diogo Jota to tap home in front of an empty Kop.
Midtjylland went close to equalising after a clever shot on-the-turn by Brazilian substitute Evander.
In the end, Liverpool finished with Salah, Mane and Firmino on the pitch, Salah doubling the lead with a stoppage-time penalty after the Egypt forward was brought down by Paulinho.
With group rivals Atalanta and Ajax drawing 2-2 in Italy, Liverpool have six points from two games, two more than second-placed Atalanta, who they visit next Tuesday.
Liverpool labour to three points
Starting with none of their famed front three, Liverpool failed to manage a single first-half shot on target for the first time in 51 home games.
Divock Origi, Takumi Minamino and Xherdan Shaqiri all struggled to make an impact during a flat home performance as Jurgen Klopp looked to rest Mane, Salah and Firmino during a hectic run of fixtures.
Instead, the Liverpool boss was forced to send all three on to ensure Liverpool sealed the points.
The loss of Fabinho is a big worry with the Brazilian having performed well in Van Dijk's absence.
Liverpool's number three pulled up off the ball and slumped to the ground before being replaced by 19-year-old Rhys Williams, who came on as an 89th-minute substitute in the 1-0 win away to Ajax last week.
With Van Dijk set to miss the majority of the season and games coming thick and fast, Klopp will be hoping Fabinho's injury is not serious particularly as Joel Matip is also out injured.
Fabinho has appeared in central defence in the absence of Virgil van Dijk, who suffered a serious knee injury on 17 October
Rookies give Reds a scare
Danish champions Midtjylland were only formed in 1999 and are playing in their first Champions League group campaign.
Having been beaten 4-0 at home to Atalanta last week, they put up a much better fight against the six-time champions of Europe.
One of European football's feel-good stories, Midtjylland almost took a shock early lead only for Alisson to save Liverpool's blushes to keep out former Brighton player Anders Dreyer following a ball over the top.
Moments before Salah doubled the lead in stoppage time Dreyer went close to equalising, going past Gomez but dinking over Alisson and into the side-netting.
Assist king - the best of the stats
Since his Liverpool debut in October 2016, Trent Alexander-Arnold has registered 35 assists in all competitions, with no Premier League defender managing more in that time.
Midtjylland became the 17th team to play their first ever Champions League away game against an English side - with all 17 failing to win and 15 losing.
Courtesy of his first Champions League goal since December 2016 (for Porto v Leicester), Diogo Jota has now scored in three of his four appearances for Liverpool at Anfield in all competitions.
Excluding qualifiers, Midtjylland have lost eight of their 10 away games in European competition (W1 D1).
Mohamed Salah has been involved in 10 goals in 10 Champions League group stage games at Anfield (9 goals, 1 assist).
What's next?
Liverpool are back in action at Anfield on Saturday when West Ham are the visitors (17:30 GMT).

Bartomeu has been president since Sandro Rosell resigned in 2014
Barcelona president Josep Maria Bartomeu has resigned under increasing pressure, but said he had accepted proposals for the club to join a European Super League.
Fans had been trying to remove Bartomeu, who became president in 2014 and had fallen out with Lionel Messi.
He stood down on Tuesday, along with the entire board of directors.
In a leaving speech Bartomeu said Barca had begun proceedings to join a Super League to help its financial future.
Last week, BBC Sport reported talks had taken place over the creation of a new £4.6bn European Premier League involving the top sides from across the continent, although discussions are at an early stage.
La Liga president Javier Tebas responded to Bartomeu's claims by saying it "confirms his ignorance about the football industry".
Tebas called it a "weak and imaginary competition which would be their ruin".
Bartomeu was due to step down in March, having served the maximum two terms as president, but was facing a vote of no confidence.
More than 20,000 club members signed a motion to remove him.
Resentment had grown against his leadership over the past year because of worsening finances and Barca's decline on the pitch and their failure to win a trophy last season.
Bartomeu also fell out with star player Messi in the summer after the Argentina forward handed in a transfer request.
Messi failed to force a move and decided to stay, but said he felt deceived by Bartomeu, adding: "There has been no project or anything for a long time".
Barcelona are owned by their supporters, who vote to elect a president to run the club.
Analysis
Spanish football expert Guillem Balague
Bartomeu did not want to be the first president to be kicked out by a vote of no confidence. Campaigners needed 66% of votes to get rid of him and estimations were 80% of the vote was against him.
Barcelona won four leagues, four cups and the Treble in 2014-15 while he was president, but another way of looking at his tenure is what he did with the money from the Neymar sale.
Barcelona spent 400m euros on Philippe Coutinho, Antoine Griezmann and Ousmane Dembele, with no success.
The most dangerous thing is that financially the club is a disaster.
What will happen next is those in charge, first a management committee and then a new president after the elections, will have such a huge job to stop that negative economical dynamic they will have to think of the books. They will have to sell assets including, possibly, players and will not be able to pay the same wages.
Season ticket holders will have to approve a move to join a European Super League but Bartomeu said it guaranteed the income they need to keep the club in the hands of the fans.
Such a league, if it takes off, will not start till 2024 and that still leaves the club in serious financial disarray,
It will take Barcelona a long time to come back from that - four or five years. But the toxic atmosphere that had built around the club because of the Bartomeu presidency will disappear.
At least there will be hope. Messi didn't want to leave under Bartomeu but let's see what happens now.

Real Madrid have scored four times and conceded five in their opening two Champions League matches of 2020-21
Real Madrid scored two late goals to snatch a dramatic Champions League point against Borussia Monchengladbach.
Thirteen-time European champions Real were 2-0 down in the 87th minute before goals from Karim Benzema and Casemiro saw them earn a thrilling draw.
Monchengladbach's Marcus Thuram scored with a fine finish from Alassane Plea's pass and added a second when Thibaut Courtois could only parry Plea's shot.
Benzema's overhead kick gave Real hope before Casemiro's 93rd-minute leveller.
Monchengladbach, playing in the group stages of the Champions League for only their third campaign, were heading top of Group B until Real's late double.
The hosts had chances to kill the game off when they lead 2-0 as Plea could have added a third when he broke clear of the visiting defence but was denied a one-on-one chance with Courtois.
Lars Stindl also shot narrowly wide for Monchengladbach, who have drawn both of their group matches 2-2 after a similar scoreline away at Inter Milan last week.
Real have one point from their two games after a shock 3-2 opening defeat by Ukrainian side Shakhtar Donetsk, who top the group.
"For me, this draw is not a relief, it's a deserved result," said Real coach Zinedine Zidane.
"We had an opponent who had us in trouble on two or three occasions, but we didn't panic and came back with character.
"If we continue to play like that, we'll do great things and we'll win matches, that's for sure."
Borussia Monchengladbach's Marcus Thuram is the son of former France international Lilian, who played in the same 1998 World Cup-winning side as Real Madrid manager Zinedine Zidane
Real avoid unwanted club record
Spanish champions Real were only seconds away from setting an unwanted club record as they were on the verge of losing four consecutive European matches for the first time in their history - including both legs of last season's last-16 defeat by Manchester City and the game against Shakhtar.
Since that loss, Real beat Barcelona 3-1 at the Nou Camp in El Clasico on Saturday and would have been confident of defeating a Monchengladbach side sixth in the German Bundesliga.
Zidane's side made a bright start as Benzema shot wide, Sergio Ramos glanced a header off target and Toni Kroos had an effort saved by Yann Sommer.
But those missed chances proved costly as the hosts went ahead in the 33rd minute as Plea's fine pass, which went through the legs of Raphael Varane and cut out Lucas Vazquez, was met by an excellent first-time finish from Thuram for the first of his two goals.
Ferland Mendy hit the crossbar for Real within seconds of the restart, before Thuram, the son of ex-France international Lilian, added his second after Courtois could only parry the ball into his path.
Real Madrid captain Sergio Ramos scored in the 3-1 away win over Barcelona on Saturday and missed a good chance against Borussia Monchengladbach when it was goalless, but got the assist for the equaliser
Real brought on ex-Tottenham midfielder Luka Modric and former Chelsea forward Eden Hazard for his first appearance of the season in an attempt to rescue the game.
And the visitors pulled one back when Casemiro did well to reach a header and stop the ball going out of play, with it falling into Benzema's path and he scored acrobatically.
But Real were not finished and in the third minute of stoppage time a cushioned header from captain Ramos reached Casemiro and he steered his finish into the net
Real have reached at least the last 16 of the Champions League in every one of the past 23 seasons, and are in the same position as last year when they only picked up one point from their opening two games before reaching the knockout stages.
Nevertheless, Real, Champions League winners on three occasions in Zidane's two spells in charge, find themselves bottom of Group B with a lot of work to do.
Real loose at the back - the stats
Real Madrid avoided defeat in an away Champions League game having gone two goals behind for the first time since December 2006 against Dynamo Kyiv.
Real (drew one, lost three) have failed to win four consecutive matches across all European competitions for the first time since September 2006 (a run of five).
Borussia Monchengladbach have won only one of their last 12 matches in all competitions against Spanish teams (drew three, lost eight), winning 4-2 against Sevilla in November 2015 in the Champions League.
Real have conceded five goals in the Champions League this season - the joint most they have conceded at this stage of the competition (also in 2004-05 and 2019-20), while they have failed to win their opening two group games in consecutive campaigns.
Monchengladbach's Marcus Thuram became just the third Frenchman to net a double in their first home Champions League appearance, after Thierry Henry (1997, Monaco) and Moussa Dembele (2016, Celtic).
Monchengladbach became the 30th different opponent Karim Benzema has scored against in the Champions League - only Lionel Messi (36), Cristiano Ronaldo and Raul (33 each) have scored against more different opponents in the competition's history.

Dembele's strike deflected off Federico Chiesa
Barcelona provided "the best response" to the "turmoil" off the pitch by convincingly beating Juventus in the Champions League, says midfielder Sergi Roberto.
It has been a whirlwind few days for the Spanish giants as they lost 3-1 to Real Madrid in El Clasico on Saturday before the club's president Josep Maria Bartomeu announced his resignation on Tuesday.
However, they made it two wins from two in this season's Champions League group stage with goals from Ousmane Dembele and Lionel Messi seeing off a poor Juventus side, who had Merih Demiral sent off late on for picking up a second yellow card.
"The best response we could give to the turmoil at the club is a display like this," said Roberto.
"Everybody has been talking a lot but the team simply want to win games."
Dembele opened the scoring when his deflected shot looped over Wojciech Szczesny in the Juventus goal.
Messi then wrapped up the win in stoppage time when he coolly converted a penalty after substitute Ansu Fati had been fouled.
When the draw for the group stage had been made, this fixture caught the eye for the possibility of a Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi reunion for the first time in two years.
However, Ronaldo was left out of the squad after having another test for Covid-19 earlier this week, with the Portugal international self-isolating since a positive test on 13 October.
Without him, Juventus lacked bite and although Alvaro Morata had the ball in the back of the net on three occasions, each one was ruled out by the Video Assistant Referee.
Victory means Barcelona are top of Group G, three points ahead of Juventus and Dynamo Kyiv.
Barcelona almost back to their best
Barcelona have been poor by their own high standards so far this season, having won just two of their first five La Liga games, but there were glimpses of them back to their best in this game.
Their passing was at times slick with Messi unsurprisingly at the heart of the best moments.
The victory should perhaps have been by a greater margin against a Juventus side that offered very little but after a difficult week, Barcelona will take the win as a step in the right direction.
"I'm very content with the football we played, with the result and especially with the character my team showed," said Barcelona boss Ronald Koeman.
"We created a lot of goal chances and, frankly, I think we should have finished the match off much earlier."
Juventus feeling Ronaldo's absence
Ronaldo made a typically blistering start to the season with three goals in Juventus' first two games but he has not been involved since 27 September after testing positive for coronavirus.
The Italians are certainly feeling his absence having now managed to win just once in the four games without him.
They lacked a real cutting edge against Barcelona, failing to register a single shot on target in the entirety of this game.
The hosts may feel aggrieved that Morata had every one of his strikes ruled out, but ultimately Barcelona were deserved winners for a dominant display.
Offside Alvaro - the stats
Barcelona have only suffered one defeat in their last 18 Uefa Champions League group stage games on the road, going unbeaten in each of the last 11.
Juventus' loss to Barcelona was just their second home defeat in their last 25 Champions League group stage games, the other a 2-1 loss to Manchester United in November 2018.
Juventus failed to record a shot on target in a Champions League home game for the first time since 2003-04 (when Opta have this data available).
Merih Demiral was the 22nd different Juventus player to be sent off in the Champions League, with the Italian side receiving seven more red cards than any other side in the competition (27).
Since the start of last season, no player has been caught offside on more occasions in the Champions League than Álvaro Morata (13).
Ousmane Dembele's goal was his first strike scored from outside the box for Barcelona in all competitions since September 2018 against PSV, also in the Champions League. His previous 11 goals had all been inside.
Since Lionel Messi's first Champions League campaign in 2004-05, only Cristiano Ronaldo (38) has provided more assists in the competition than the Argentine (35).

England play their final match of the postponed 2020 Six Nations against Italy on Saturday
Police say they will not investigate Barbarians players for breaking Covid-19 rules ahead of their cancelled match against England last weekend.
The game at Twickenham was called off after 12 Barbarians players were stood down for breaching regulations.
The players left their hotel bubble - contrary to team protocols - to have dinner at a London restaurant.
During its inquiries, the Rugby Football Union discovered another breach where players left the hotel.
