Arsenal manager issues Leah Williamson injury update and blames Man Utd pitch

Arsenal boss Jonas Eidevall admitted he “does not know” the extent of Lionesses skipper Leah Williamson’s injury after the defender was forced off in the Gunners’ 1-0 defeat to Manchester United.

Less than 15 minutes into the WSL heavyweight clash on Wednesday night, the 26-year-old was replaced after falling awkwardly while chasing possession and ostensibly sustaining a knee injury.

Williamson immediately signalled to be taken off. Despite a stretcher brought onto the pitch, a limping Williamson walked off the pitch to a loud applause. She was later seen emerging from the tunnel on crutches.
