As Mallory Weber went down in pain last Saturday on the field of Providence Park in the first 15 minutes of the game versus the Portland Thorns, it did not look good for the Kansas City Current defender. She left the game in the 19th minute with a non-contact injury, being carried off by the athletic trainers.
Today, the club announced that Weber will undergo surgery to repair an injury to her anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) suffered in the team’s regular season opener on April 30. Weber will remain in Kansas City as she recovers and rehabilitates her knee.
