England captain Leah Williamson is to miss this year’s Women’s World Cup after rupturing her anterior cruciate ligament while playing for her club Arsenal, the defender announced Friday via Instagram. Williamson suffered the injury during the first half of the team’s game against Manchester United on Wednesday, according to the club’s statement. “Until I have the words to express my feelings properly I will struggle to verbalise them.
” Arsenal’s announcement said the club “will be supporting Leah closely throughout the journey ahead and we would ask that her privacy is respected at this time.” Williamson’s Arsenal teammates Beth Mead and Vivianne Miedema have also suffered from ACL injuries this season and Mead believes more needs to be done to analyze why these injuries are so common in women’s soccer.
