Scarlett's POV

"Hopefully tonight's game is less chippy than the US Game." Leah says as we ride to the Tottenham stadium for our match against Canada tonight.

We beat the US team 6-1.

"Let's hope not." I say as we're passed tonight's line-up then my wives and I look at the line-up.

1-Madeline Sow
2-Lucy Bronze
6-Leah Williamson(C)
8-Millie Bright
15-Alex Greenwood
20-Katie Zelem
10-Fran Kirby
24-Georgia Stanway
7-Beth Mead
14-Scarlett Blondeau
18-Chloe Kelly

After I look at the line-up, I pass it behind me then I relax for the rest of the drive while snuggling with and talking to Leah and Jasmine.

Once at Coca-Cola Stadium, 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.

When I get onto the pitch, I stand with Leah and talk to our teammates for a few minutes then we head back to the locker room to get ready for the game.

Once I get to my locker I take out my nose ring then I take off my necklaces, earrings, bracelet, and my rings.

After my jewelry is off, I put my jewelry in it's safe then I put my jewelry safe, phone, and wallet in my bag.

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

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

Once I'm dressed, I stand up, walk out of the locker room, and head onto the field with the outfield players.

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

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

When the last minute talks end we are told to head to the tunnel so I hug and kiss Leah and Jasmine before I head out to the tunnel.

Once in the tunnel, I line-up in-between Madeline and Beth 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 Madeline out onto the field.

Once on the field we stand in line for the English and the Canadian anthems.

When the anthem finishes we shake hands with the Canadian players, we take a starting XI picture, Leah does the coin toss, then we do our team huddle before we head onto the field.

Once everyone is in position the Canadian's kicks off the game.

For the first ten minutes of the game I study the Danish Canadian shape while also being involved in our attack.

In the 11th minute of the game Lucy steals the ball from Julia Grosso then she runs upfield so I start moving towards the Canadian goal.

As Lucy crosses midfield she looks up so I start running towards goal then the right-back looks back down at the ball and launches it towards the space in front of me.

While I'm running towards the space I feel someone coming up behind me, but I keep my eyes on the ball.

As the ball drops in front of me I feel studs hit my knee then I hear a loud pop.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAH." I scream in agony as I crumple to the ground.

After I hit the ground I hear a lot of shouting then Leah appears next to me.

"Leah." I whimper.

"The physio's are coming." Leah says.

"NAH LET HER GO." I hear Fran shout.

"It hurts so bad." I say.

"I know Scar." Leah says as she wipes a tear off my face. "Caitlin's almost here."

"Don't leave me." I say as I grab Leah's hand.

"Wouldn't dream of it my queen." Leah says

"I'LL SEE YOU IN THE TUNNEL." I hear Madeline shout. "HOE ASS BITCH."

"Alright Scarlett." Our head Physio says as she squats on the other side of me.

"It popped Caitlin." I say.

"Shit." Caitlin says making me chuckle.

"Thanks for the vote of confidence." I say.

"Hey it could be your meniscus." Caitlin says.

"Let's fucking hope." I mumble then I relax as Caitlin and the other physio's checks my knee.

Eventually the physio's come to the conclusion that I can't continue so I get loaded onto a stretcher then I get carried off the field

Once off the field Jasmine appears in my field of view.

"Jazzy." I say.

"Hi princess." Jasmine says then she puts the oxygen mask back over my mouth.

I don't really know why I'm being given oxygen.

"Where are we going?" I question.

"I don't know." Jasmine says.

"We're going to the hospital to have your leg be MRI'd." Caitlin says.

"Oh joy." I mumble then I shut up and stare up at the ceiling as I get carried to, I assume, an ambulance.

A few minutes later I'm proven right because I get loaded onto an ambulance.

Once I'm in the ambulance I stare at the ceiling for a bit then I get sat up which is nice.

After I'm sat up I look at my right-back.

"You got games on your phone?" I question.

Jasmine laughs and hands me her phone.

"Yay." I say then I open Jasmine's phone and play a game while we head to the hospital.

Some time later we arrive at the hospital so I hand Jasmine her phone back then I rest my head on the gurney as I get wheeled out of the ambulance and into the hospital.

Once I'm in the hospital I kinda zone out cause there's not really anything for me to do.

"Scarlett." I hear an angelic voice say causing me to snap out of my zone out.

"Huh?" I say then I see Jasmine looking at me.

"...Uh you tore your Meniscus." Caitlin says. "And you're gonna need surgery."

"Shit."
