From a young age, Areej aspired to become a professional footballer and  succeeded in her ambitions as she is now a part of the UAE National Football Team. During the interview, she expressed how every time she steps out for the national anthem she feels major ‘butterflies’ and the feeling never gets old. When asked about her top two moments this is what Areej had to say, “My two moments is when you score or when your team scores for the national team, it’s such an amazing feeling! And national anthem, when you line up and start singing the national anthem, you get butterflies. I can’t explain the feeling, you get so excited and hyped up.”
