Keiras pov
2024 really has been my year, well sort of we didn't qualify for the nation league finals December 5th 2023 at England but it just meant we'd have a free and longer summer, and I was going to you know make it count and I sure as hell did.

At Barça we won the Women's Champion League, that was my second time winning the award in my career. I was shooting a lot more and scoring. In the champions League season I made about 4 or 5 goals? Hell maybe more I kind of just lost count.

Me and Laura had been going really strong, I was flying out to Italy to watch her play, I was there when Roma got knocked out at the quarters finals. That shit hurt her badly. What's worse for her is that it was Bayern that knocked them out. Bayern Is my best friend's Georgia Stanway's team, I really was happy for G and I didn't fail to let that show but it really pissed off Laura. No clue why it really bothered her though... I was celebrating my best friend who I've known for like over a decade compared to my girlfriend who I had known just after Euro 2022. So course I was going to celebrate her win, but for me and Laura, it really changed us. We went days without talking to one another well she made no effort to, I was the one texting her asking if she was okay, but she left me on read every. single. time. Soon after sending a few messages with no reply but being read I just decided it wasn't worth staying in Rome if she was going to be pissed off and ignore me.i had been staying in a hotel as well to make it less awkward for us. So I flew back to Barcelona that night. I wasn't going to stay any longer than that and also we had the semi finals to play, so I had to train and prepare for the match, then It hit me we'd be playing Bayern. Georgia's team. And truth be told it was a hard game I will not lie. We were close to being knocked out...

Bayern V Barcelona - Allianz Stadium, Munich, Germany.

I was passing to players on my team with ease, Aitana scored with an assist from me in the first 20 minutes 0 to Bayern 1 to Barcelona I smiled I could just feel the victory, we would win this game. I should have expected that the worst was about to happen...

44th minute Bayern scored on a penalty, one of our players pushed one of theirs, accidental or not it was on the penalty line, I had my eye on the player taking the penalty Pernille Harder. She scored easily... And it was a good equaliser as well. It seemed Bayern were not backing down.

Half time came and we went to our respected area, our coach Jonatan was encouraging us, which definitely helped with our moods eventually after that he announced who'd be coming off.
Aitana Bonmatí would come off for Ingrid Engen, Caroline Graham Hansen for Salma Parallunelo, Ona Batlle for Lucy Bronze.

Don't get me wrong everything with that was fine but it's not always easy playing with your Ex Girlfriend but it's just another 45-50 minutes right?

WRONG!!
It seemed Bayern were scoring easily at one point I felt we were going to be knocked out. Until the ball was passed to me by Bronze, I could try my luck and shoot into the goal, or pass to her, I just shot it, not knowing what was going to happen... I heard it hit the post, "fuck off..." I mumbled I didn't look at anyone I just went back to playing. That miss was going to hurt. I blew my chance at scoring against Bayern, or so I thought...

60th Bayern had now gotten another goal to make it 2-1, we could change that and we really did, no one was backing down. And I mean NO ONE. Salma finally scored in the 66th Minute 2-2 Bayern went on to score in the 78th minute. 3-2

It was the final minutes before full time and we'd go onto extra, 89th minute, Salma got another banging goal that then meant we were tied 3 for 3, it was either we score again, Bayern scored again or went to penalties. No one likes taking penalties so we all wanted that winning goal. We got 6 minutes extra time, in the 95th minute the ball was passed back to me by Bronze and I could see the goal, it was a huge risk I was about to take. I hit the ball and just watched it, swore time stopped, and I was about to accept the defeat of more extra time. Until I heard cheering, that's when I looked up, the ball was in. The score board with the numbers 3-4. Oh my god. The ball was in the goal. I had won the winning goal of the game, I smiled, the players on the bench jumping up and running towards me when the whistle went to signify the match was over.
