The Arsenal player ruptured an anterior cruciate ligament last November, and didn’t recover in time for the tournament, which saw England make it all the way to the final alongside Spain. “It’s been a tough tournament to sit there and watch the games when you know you could’ve possibly been involved”, she told Sky. “I’m full of emotions.”
