Bayern’s Lena Oberdorf Exits Match With New Right-Knee Injury

The setback puts her planned Germany return in the Nations League against France in doubt.

Overview

  • The Germany midfielder was substituted early in Bayern’s Bundesliga game against 1. FC Köln after a 20th-minute collision.
  • Köln’s Adriana Achcińska made contact with Oberdorf’s right leg during a challenge that led to the substitution.
  • She left the pitch at the Bayern Campus with her right knee bandaged, supported by staff and visibly in pain.
  • The issue affects the same knee that sustained an ACL tear in summer 2024, following roughly a year of rehabilitation.
  • Her availability for Nations League fixtures against France in Düsseldorf and Caen is uncertain pending medical assessment.
