Megan's POV

"There we go." I say as I finish helping Katara get dressed.

"Thank you." Katara says.

"You're welcome princess." I say. "You ready to head down stairs?"

Katara nods so I grab my bag then we leave our hotel room and head downstairs to the team meeting room.

Once in the meeting room, Katara and I grab the pizza and drinks that's have our names on it then we go sit down on the couch in front of the screen.

"Auntie Chrissy." Katara says.

"Yes Munchkin?" Christen asks from the couch next to us

"Feeling better?" Katara asks. 

The majority of the team got food poisoning two nights ago and they're all still recovering so only 11 players are playing against Iceland tonight.

So many players got food poisoning that Cairo has to start tonight while Astrid, Lauren, and Keegan are the bench players.

Astrid, Lauren, and Keegan will only play if someone gets hurt.

"I am Munchkin." Christen says. "I actually have an appetite which is nice."

"Sweet." Katara says.

"I'm excited to see Cairo play." Crystal says.

"Same." Everyone says as the line-up for tonight's game against Iceland is shown on screen

"I still can't believe Emma's captain." Ash says.

At the beginning of this camp, Cairo appointed Emma team Captain, Christen Vice-Captain, Audrey second vice-captain, and Sam 3rd vice-captain.

"It's a great choice." Alex says.

"I always forget how tall Cairo is." I say as the two teams are shown in the tunnel.

Cairo's at the back of the American line and she's towering over everyone.

"You two are gonna have some tall pups." Nova says making me smile.

Seconds later the two teams walk out onto the pitch.

"I've always wanted to play a game in the snow." One of the newbies says.

"Mama's hair looks pretty with snow in it." Katara says as we eat our pizza.

"That it does." I say.

Once the teams are lined up for the anthems, the Fox Sports people show a video of Cairo.

"Woah." Sam says as we watch the video.
