DeAndre Yedlin leaves Newcastle game with a potentially serious knee injury

DeAndre Yedlin left Newcastle's Premier League-opening 2-1 loss to Tottenham in stoppage time with what looked like a potentially serious knee injury. The U.S. men's national team starting right back suffered the injury while challenging Ben Davies for a ball in the right corner in stoppage time. He got a touch but landed awkwardly when he planted his right leg, causing his knee to appear hyperextended. Yedlin was attended to by Newcastle's trainer, who performed various manual tests on the right knee. Newcastle had no substitutes remaining, but Yedlin could not return. He walked off the field with help from the trainer and with a heavy limp. He was later shown walking gingerly up the stairs in the St. James' Park tunnel one by one with his arm around a member of Newcastle staff. Yedlin started the game and would have gone 90 minutes. He has established himself as Newcastle's starting right back. The injury would be a major blow for the player, his club, and his national team.

The U.S. international left the game against Tottenham Hotspur on crutches, but he is expected to return to training soon. Yedlin played a crucial role in Newcastle's survival last season with his partnership with Matt Ritchie. His speed provides both defensive cover and offensive options. A serious injury would have left Newcastle short on fullbacks, highlighting the importance of keeping Yedlin fit for the team's success.
