Anterior cruciate ligament injuries in female football. What is the current reality?

(Vordere Kreuzbandverletzungen im Frauenfußball. Was ist die aktuelle Wirklichkeit?)

In the last years the increase in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in women's sports and even more in young athletes is a worrying issue. Those of us who live the day-to-day in women's football are concerned about the increase of these injuries in this specific population. There are several medical meetings, congresses, conferences, forums... in which this is the main topic but we miss knowing the reality from an epidemiological point of view because everything is reduced to impressions, personal opinions and sensations. In the Medical Department of Futbol Club Barcelona we began to do an epidemiological analysis to know the reality about this injury in our football teams.
