There is a need for an ACL and what it does is it protects the knee.

You can sprint forward all you want, that's not gonna affect your ACL.

We saw it at the Olympics with Lindsey Vonn, downhill skiing.

She looked good in the training videos, obviously different age group.

But the moment he needs to plant, the moment he needs to cut, the moment he's put into a high pressure situation, how will that knee hold up?

It may not.

Best case scenario, he makes it through the World Cup.

Worst case scenario, he has for the world to see a moment that you could have just made sure did not happen.

I'm hoping he realizes it's not worth it.

I'm hoping he's safe about how he goes about this next three weeks of playing.

And I'm hoping it goes well for him because there's a reason that most players, if not all, don't play on partially torn ACLs.

There's a reason they get those reconstructed.

I've been exactly where he is.

You know, made my national team debut and then the following week after I get back from Copa America, blew out my knee in a training session and I didn't just think that my World Cup dream was over.

This was 2007.

I had three years to the World Cup.

I thought my career was over.

I thought I'd never be the same player.

I thought this is it.

Do you go into a dark place?
