England suffer another injury scare as Lucy Bronze hobbles off against Chelsea

The right-back left the pitch 66 minutes into Saturday's encounter at Stamford Bridge after picking up an injury to her right knee. Bronze, who was an integral part of the Lionesses EUROs-winning squad, becomes the latest England star to suffer an injury scare ahead of this summer's World Cup.

On Friday, it was announced captain Leah Williamson would miss the tournament after rupturing her anterior cruciate ligament in Arsenal's Women's Super League defeat to Manchester United on Wednesday. Star forward Beth Mead is almost certain to miss the World Cup after rupturing her ACL last November, with Millie Bright and Fran Kirby also major doubts.
