Emma's POV
"Emma." One of the USWNT Media People says. "You're on."
"Alright." I say then I take a deep breath and walk out of the Home dressing room here in Miami and head to the pitch for my retirement ceremony.
Today is December 8th, 2035 and today was my final professional game.
We beat Belgium 4-0.
I wanted my retirement ceremony to be held after the game so I could remain focused.
When I get to the edge of the tunnel I stop and take another deep breath then I wait to be called out
"PLEASE WELCOME TO THE FIELD ONE LAST TIME." The PA Announcer shouts. "YOUR UNITED STATES WOMEN'S NATIONAL TEAM CAPTAIN...NUMBER 1, EMMA HARRIS."
"Here goes nothing." I mumble then I walk out onto the pitch.
Once on the pitch I walk through the two lines my teammates have created then I notice everyone clapping.
After I reach the end of the guard of honor, I see a framed Jersey sitting on a stand.
When I get to the jersey that says my last name and 320 as the number, I look at the plaque and read it.
Emma Harris
320 Caps
120 Clean Sheets
Record: 250 Wins-50 Draws-20 Losses
A small part of me is sad that I didn't miss many games.
And when I say a small part I mean a 0.0000000001% part of me.
After I look at the plaque I notice all the awards and trophy's from my career.
During my 20 year career as a footballer I won 5 World Cups, 4 Olympic Gold Medals, 4 Champions League, 3 World Cup Golden ball's, 4 World Cup Golden Glove's, 3 WSL league titles, 8 NWSL league titles, 5 Ballon d'Or's, 6 The Best FIFA Women's Player awards, 12 time FIFPro World XI goalkeeper, and a shit ton of other personal awards.
I'm gonna toot my own horn here.
I was a fucking sick Goalkeeper.
Once I finish looking at all the awards and trophy's from my career, my 2035 World Cup teammates say some things about me which gives me time to reflect on my career
After the 2023 World Cup, a bunch of my friends retired which fucking sucked, but eventually I got over it.
