Alex Greenwood Suffers Knee Injury in Champions League

Manchester City captain Alex Greenwood suffered a knee injury during a UEFA Women's Champions League match against St. Polten, leading to her being stretchered off in the first half. Manager Gareth Taylor has since confirmed that her injury is 'not as serious as feared,' but they are awaiting further medical assessments to determine the recovery timeline. Greenwood's absence adds to an extensive injury list for City, which includes key players like Vivianne Miedema and Khadija Shaw, who is also undergoing investigations for her lower leg injury. Despite these challenges, City managed to secure a 2-0 victory, maintaining their perfect record in the tournament. Taylor praised the team's resilience but acknowledged that losing Greenwood would complicate their upcoming fixtures. The team prepares to face Everton in the Women's Super League amidst these injury woes.
