Jordan Henderson and Lucy Bronze have been voted BT England players of the year for 2019, the Football Association has announced.
Liverpool midfielder Henderson won the men's award ahead of runner-up Raheem Sterling and third-placed Harry Kane.
Bronze, meanwhile, topped the fans' poll from 2018 winner Ellen White, with Beth Mead third.
It is the second time Lyon star Bronze has claimed the England honour, having previously won it in 2015.
