The 28-year-old, sacked by Premier League club Sunderland last week, denies two counts of sexual activity with the girl, who was 15 years old at the time of the alleged incident. Johnson has admitted one count of sexual activity with a child and another of meeting a child following grooming. The girl explained how Johnson continued to message her, talking about getting a "thank you kiss". "I was well up for it. It was a surreal type of thing," she said. "I met up with him again. I gave him his thank you kiss and more."
