Emma's POV

"So who'd you get for your secret Santa?" Jordan asks as our bus pulls up to The Hive Stadium.

We play away at Tottenham today in our last game before the three week Christmas break.

"If I told you that then it would give away who it is." I say. "You'll find out tomorrow."

"You suck." Jordan mumbles as the bus stops.

After the bus stops everyone grabs their bags then we get off the bus and head to the locker room.

When I get to my locker I take my AirPods out, take out my nose ring, take off my necklaces and my rings, then I put my jewelry and AirPods in my bag.

Once I'm jewelry free I put on my short sleeve black undershirt, my warm up top, then I put on my game shorts. I then sit down in my locker, put my long long curly brown hair up in a ponytail, put on my socks and put on my black and gold boots.

After my boots are on I tape my wrists, hands, and fingers then I put on my black and white 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 black keeper jersey while the coaches do their last minute talks.

After the last minute talks are over we are told to head to the tunnel so I grab my towel and water bottle then I head to the front of the line in the tunnel and stand behind Kim.

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

Once on the field we stand in a line for a few seconds then we head to our bench and do our team huddle.

After our team huddle I grab my towel and water bottle then I head to my goal. When I get to my goal I put my water bottle on the outside of the net, hang my towel on the net, then I watch as Viv kick off the game.

The first 10 or so minutes of the game are a bit boring with the ball living in the

In the 15th minute we give away a corner for some fucking reason so I get in my goal and wait for the corner.

Once the ref blows her whistle someone floats the ball into the box and it's a shit cross so I run out to punch it away.

The next thing I know I'm flying through the air, I hear a ding, then everything turns black.

"Emma wake up." I hear Christen say

"What?" I ask as the light comes back and I can see clearly. "I'm awake."

"Emma you were unconscious for like a minute." Julie says.

"COMING THROUGH." I hear one of our AT's shout.

"Was that dinging noise my head?" I ask.

"Yeah." Leah says.

"Can you feel this?" Jessica, one of our AT's asks as she pokes on my body.

"Yeah I can feel all of that." I say.

"Can you move everything?" Heidi, another one of the AT's asks and I nod then move my limbs.

"Can I say something?" I ask

"Of course." Heidi says.

"Can I just come off and let Lydia play?" I ask. "I'd rather not test it if I do have a concussion."
