No one could stop them ~ A.R

Olivia's pov

We were now on international break.

We had been at St George's Park for five days before heading down to London to play Sweden at Wembley.

It was exciting knowing that we were playing at Wembley again.

From the cheers from the crowds, we could tell it wasn't going to be a sell out but still a lot of people.

We had already been to warm up and even then, the crowd was getting bigger and bigger.

Before we could line up in the tunnel, Lessi helped me put on the armband, pressing a kiss on my lips and handing me the pennant.

I led the team out and we sung the national anthem before shaking hands with the match officials and the Swedish team.

Before long, the match kicked off and the road to the euros began.

Just after four minutes, Less was kicked in the shin and fell down.

The match was stopped and I ran over to her.

I call the medics over as I saw blood seeping through her sock.

I gently pressed kisses to her head as they cleaned and bandaged the wound.

She was guided off the pitch for further treatment so we could continue the match.

Within three minutes, lessi was back on the pitch and playing.

The game continued and in the 24', I crossed it into less and she headed it in.

We all ran to her and I picked her up, enveloping her in a hug.

The first half ended and we entered the second half 1-0 up.

Our 1-0 up didn't last long in the second half because Sweden scored from a header.

We restarted quickly, hoping to find another goal to win.

And that's what happened, six minutes from full time.

Lucy had passed it up the pitch and Chloe received it on the wing.

Chloe crossed it in to the box where I had been waiting to receive it.

I ran forward to try and get to the ball first but as I ran, a soaring pain shot through my knee and around my body along with the sound of a pop.

I heard the crowd erupt, meaning I had scored but all I felt was pain.

I hit the ground in anger, knowing exactly what I had down.

"Livvy, baby, what's wrong? Where does it hurt?" Lessi's voice was heard as a hand rested on my back, rubbing it.

"I've done it, Lessi. I've done my ACL."

I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who had read, voted or commented on the chapters.

Also thank yous to the people who have suggested ideas for this book.
