The United States is facing some uncertainty as it prepares for the approaching Women’s World Cup with forward Mallory Swanson sidelined by a serious knee injury for the foreseeable future.
ST. LOUIS — With forward Mallory Swanson sidelined by a serious knee injury for the foreseeable future, the United States is facing some uncertainty as it prepares for the approaching Women’s World Cup.“I think that in this past year, you’ve seen a lot of players go down with injury and we’ve been able to adapt,” forward Lynn Williams said. “I think that’s what the team’s going to continue to do, is continue to adapt.
“No matter who gets injured it is a tough moment because their careers, their futures are impacted, and the team is impacted,” Andonovski said. “Mal is arguably one of the best players in the world. It’s unfortunate what happened but I think that the team is doing well and they do galvanize and bond around unfortunate things like this.”
Alyssa Thompson was hastily brought to St. Louis to take Swanson’s place among the 26 players called up for the two matches against Ireland. The 18-year-old was the top pick in the NWSL draft out of high school by Angel City.
