Scotland midfielder Kim Little has been voted the BBC Women's Footballer of the Year 2016.

Kim Little was Seattle's leading scorer, and second overall in America's National Women's Soccer League, with 10 goals as she helped the Reign top the league in 2015

The Seattle Reign player topped a supporters' poll to become the second winner of the BBC World Service award.

She beat a shortlist of Gaelle Enganamouit (FC Rosengard, Sweden), Amandine Henry (Olympique Lyonnais), Carli Lloyd (Houston Dash) and Becky Sauerbrunn (FC Kansas City).

"I'm surprised to win, I'm extremely humbled to win," Little, 25, said.
