Katana's POV

"Here Kit-Kat." Tierna says as she hands me our line-up for tonight's game against Chelsea.

"Thanks T." I say then I grab the line-up and look at it.

1-Katana Solo
2-Ashley Lawerence
4-María León
12-Tierna Davidson
15-Katie McCabe
8-Jordan Nobbs
17-Jessie Harris
7-Jackie Groenen
23-Alessia Russo
14-Talia Martin(C)
11-Lieke Martens

After I look at the line-up, I pass it behind me then I relax with my doggies as we ride to Chelsea's stadium.

Once at Stamford Bridge, the bus parks then everyone gets off and heads to the locker room.

When we get to the locker room, everyone puts their stuff down in their respective lockers.

Once my stuff is in my locker, my teammates and I head outside for the pitch inspection.

After we've inspected the pitch, my teammates and I head back to the locker room.

When I get to my locker I take my AirPods out, I take out my nose ring, I take off my necklaces, earrings, bracelet, watch, and my rings, put my jewelry in it's safe then I put my jewelry safe and AirPods in my bag.

Once I'm jewelry free I take off my tracksuit and put my dark brown locs up in a ponytail then I put on my long sleeve yellow undershirt, my warm up top, and I put on my game shorts.

I then sit down in my locker and put on my socks, my shin pads and my red boots.

After my boots are on I tape my wrists, hands, and fingers then I put on my red keeper gloves before I head onto the field with the other keepers.

When I get on the pitch I run through my warm ups with the keepers for a while then head back to the locker room.

Once in the locker room I change out of the training top and change into my yellow keeper jersey while Amaka does her last minute talks.

After the last minute talks end, I grab some black tape off the table in the middle of the room then I tape over our new shirt sponsor.

Our new shirt sponsor is Air China.

"What're you doing?" Some youth player says. "Air China not paying you enough."

"I'm doing this because China is sending weapons to Russia to use in their invasion of Ukraine." I say as I tape over our new shirt sponsor. "Not to mention their treatment of the Uyghur's

After I finish taping over the Air China sponsor, I look up at my teammates.

"I'm not asking you to do anything." I say. "But I hope you understand why I must."

And before anyone says it yes I talked a lot about the UAE and their human rights violations when our shirt sponsor was Emirates airlines.

Actually I still do talk about the human rights violations in the UAE.

I talk about a lot of countries violating their citizens human rights.

"I'll take that." Jackie says then she grabs the tape and tape's over the Air China Sponsor on her shirt.

"Well I mean we do have to look like a team." Jordan says then the tape is passed around for everyone to use.

Once everyone has taped over the shirt sponsorship, we are told to head to the tunnel so I grab my towel and water bottle then Appa, Socks, and I do as told.

Once in the tunnel, I line-up right behind Talia then I wait for us to be called out.

Minutes later we are told to head out onto the field for the prematch stuff so I follow Talia out onto the field.
