Marie-Antoinette Katoto is the latest women’s footballer to injure her knee, with the star striker tore her ACL during France’s group-stage win over Belgium on Thursday.

Katoto exited France’s second group-stage match of the Euros in the 15th minute after clutching her knee. The 23-year-old emerged for the second half on crutches on the sidelines.
With 26 goals in 32 appearances for her country, Katoto is one of France’s most dangerous offensive weapons.
Katoto’s injury comes after a series of high-profile ACL tears, including Spain’s Alexia Putellas and United States’ Catarina Macario.
France will take the pitch without Katoto in the team’s last Group D matchup against Iceland on Monday.
