-,' two in two.
when match day finally came, kai wasn't nervous like she was last time. she had gotten subbed on last game for scott in the 80th mintue and some how managed to turn the score around with a big difference.
they wasn't a person on the team who didn't think she was one of the best youngsters, she could've easily been the best female youngster.
even though her 20th birthday was tomorrow, she was still considered as a youngster but the skills she mastered at such a young age was unbelieveable.
the way she would run with the ball, the way she would use her eyes to sometimes signal her teammates when the opponent was too close.
she never ran out of skills, she always had one in mind whenever she was close to another player.
so when she was placed in united's starting XI this game, she tried to keep herself calm even though she was very much confident.
as the team began to line up to make their appearance onto the field, she rubbed her hands together before letting out a hasty breath.
their opponent's today was newcastle, the richest club in the leauge.
she looked around the tunnel a bit, as if she was still trying to adjust to actually playing for united.
when she was in italy, she played with her first team there; juventus fc.
she played amazingly there, so when she was willing to leave, clubs put their bid on the young italian. in which she chose united because she simply always loved them.
feeling two hands on her shoulders, she swung around to see marcus looking down at her with a small smile.
"i know you're nervous KL, but trust me you'll do so well," he encouraged her.
she let out a little laugh, a hand rubbing up and down her forearm, "lets just hope i do then,"
and she did. as soon as the whistle blew, she immediately took her place on the pitch, spacing herself to get the ball somehow.
alex stood a little after half pitch, before raising his left hand, crossing the ball to kai as she ran in with joe willock closing in on her.
once she got the ball at her feet, she only spared willock a glance, a small smirk pinching her face then she pushed the ball through his legs and ran around him.
the fans all cheered for what she just did, she felt the adrenaline pumping in her veins more than ever now.
as she was now in the box, her right foot hit the ball with power as she watched it fizzled itself into the back of the net. the fans shouted, the atmosphere making her a bit more confident before she ran with a smile on her face to the corner flag.
she held her two hands up with two fingers, indicating her two games, two goals. then she was pulled into the arms of her teammates.
after the group hug, she was left in the arms of marcus, he laughed, ruffling her hair, "what did i tell you, unbelieveable."
while she made her way back for the game to resume, she peaked a glance at jadon who was sat on the bench, she grinned turning around and threw her two thumbs over her back. she pointed to the number '15' on her back and smiled at him. he simply laughed, looking at her with glee in his eyes.

once the matched had finished in united's liking, she clapped her hands together watching the fans as they applauded for the players on the pitch.
