Two years to the day after tearing her ACL, Press returns to train with her teammates after a lengthy recovery with four surgeries
Angel City FC forward Christen Press waves to fans prior to the start of an NWSL soccer match between Angel City FC and the Portland Thorns FC at BMO Stadium in Los Angeles on Sunday, Oct. 15, 2023. Angel City FC won 5-1. Christen Press returned to training Tuesday morning with Angel City FC, a big step in her recovery after she has been sidelined since tearing her ACL two years ago.
“I would say that the thing about recovery is it kind of goes really slow and then comes all at once,” she said after Tuesday’s session. “Today was a milestone and I was happy to celebrate that with my team. “I think it is another step in her rehab and her return to play,” Tweed said. “I think it is still step-by-step for her. Getting her back in with the team is really important. Mentally, for the team, for her, for everybody. Obviously physically too. She is checking boxes and moving along. It is exciting. Again, just the next step in her rehab process. Big for everybody and a good day to get back out.
