Dutch striker Vivianne Miedema was ruled out of this summer's World Cup due to a serious injury and admits it has been too painful to watch other stars suffer similar misfortune.
The Arsenal forward was stretched off during a Champions League game in December and was unable to make a full recovery in time for the showpiece tournament.
The 27-year-old has been watching from home like club team-mate Beth Mead, who got the same injury four weeks before her.
And Miedema says she has had to leave the room during certain moments.
