Forward injured in England win over Australia
Beever-Jones: ‘I will be praying she will be OK’
Sarina Wiegman said she was “not feeling very positive” about the extent of the knee injury suffered by forward Michelle Agyemang in England’s 3-0 defeat of Australia.
The 19-year-old Arsenal forward, who began the season on loan at Brighton, slammed the Pride Park pitch in agony after going down off the ball, prompting teammates and medical staff to rush to her side. She exited on a stretcher, with a concerned Wiegman speaking to her as she was taken down the tunnel.
“That was an awful moment,” said the England manager. “It doesn’t look good. We don’t know the extent of it yet, she needs to be assessed, but I’m not feeling very positive.”
