England captain Williamson injured three months before World Cup

0

England captain Leah Williamson will be hoping her place at the World Cup is not under threat after limping out of Arsenal's Women's Super League loss at Manchester United with a suspected knee injury.

Williamson collapsed in pain just 12 minutes into the game in a top-of-the-table contest, after appearing to damage her knee.

She immediately signalled to the bench for treatment and the stretcher was called to take her off. Williamson stood up herself before being helped off the field of play by two members of the medical staff.

With less than 100 days to go before the World Cup begins this injury could spell bad news for Sarina Wiegman's Lionesses - who have likely lost Beth Mead to a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament suffered in November.

After the match, Arsenal manager Jonas Eidevall said there was no news on how long Williamson could be out for, admitting it was too early to say.
