Christen Press trains after a two year injury

Two years to the day from when Angel City Football Club forward Christen Press sustained a season-ending injury during the club’s inaugural season, she returned to the training pitch with her teammates. While her participation was brief in relative terms to the full session, it was a step in the right direction as she continues her road to return to play.

I'm very happy to see this great player and the sweetest human being back.

Christen Press is the mentor Alyssa Thompson has needed.

So nice to see her back in training. The way she glides across a field is so amazing. Love her!

An AMAZING player- I hope she ends up on the USWNT - she deserves it and we need her.

Best of luck for her. Insane that an ACL took 2 years. They need to learn from Arsenal where they got 5 ACL injuries in one year and all of them where back to playing in about 11 months (actual play time not warming up sessions)

Were they 33?

[@gracearteaga4898]

yes i wonder why it took so long especially with all the professional rehab they get
