I’m not an Arsenal fan but how lovely to get to watch this 👏👏👏. You can’t not love Beth and Viv, and kudos to Arsenal for letting us all follow their journey 👏👏

Pelova looking at Viv make my heart melt
Thanks for sharing your journey, Meado & Viv ❤
This heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time. To come back from that type of devastating injury talks about the strength of their soul. Thanks for sharing their journey. Looking forward to more episodes.
Hahahaha never 🤡
No
LOL no idi0t
First Episode had me in tears but a good start to the documentary. Keep shining the light until a better understanding is brought forward.
I was 12 when I did my ACL. I loved playing football with all of me, but I never got my confidence back after that. Obviously football isn’t my career but this documentary means a lot. ❤❤❤
just try it one more time for fun !! it’ll blow your mind !!!
Two remarkable ladies wishing them all the best coyg
Wasn’t a supporter of Arsenal when Beth got her injury, but looking at her slamming her fist down at 5:23 into the pitch in so much pain… that was truly heartwrenching to see
No
@@scarlettmagana9399Scarlett your reasoning is so detailed I’m gobsmacked
So that moment made you a fan? Being a fan means being in pain a great deal of the time, but it's not often one becomes a fan because of pain.
@@thejason347 no, but I do remember feeling gutted for them at the time. I didn't become a fan until after I lived in LON and when Alessia signed to Arsenal
Truly remarkable, inspiring, and emotional video. Beth , Viv, and obviously Leah afterwards , I wish you a much better 2024 ⚽️🥇🏆
Seen this on the website twice already and have sobbed both times❤. When’s the second episode coming out because it currently almost 12:00 am for me!?

I had the same injury from playing football and watching this has really made me emotional. It's so strange too as watching this has subconsciously made my knee hurt😂
Hearing Beth and Viv describe what they went through reminded me of when I ruptured the ACL in my left knee back in March 2006. Crazy thing is that it was during the warmup before a game. I planted my left foot while passing the ball with my right foot, with my body leaning slightly to my left when my left foot slid left as well and I heard a "pop". The knee isn't meant to bend to the left, but mine did.
Beth mead you are a really great inspiration to all girls who want to play. I loved all your goals in the euros and I wish I was in your time line so I would be allowed to play. I am the age of your precious mum and I thank your mum and dad for gifting us England fans to enjoy your immense talent. I wish you and viv all the love on your your footie career. Keep the goals coming Beth your my fave player xx
doesn’t even matter if you’re an arsenal supporter or not, if you’re a supporter of the sport you feel for every single player going through this❤️🩹
Amazing insight into what goes behind the scenes and also how two extremely close partners deal with horrific injury. I was out with arthritis for three months this year and the pain is real. I'm glad that women finally have shoes being designed for them. Long overdue. Great stuff.
i honestly cannot image how hard it must be for them, 2 of the most amazing footballers, to miss THE WORLDCUP which is every footballers dream stage. looking at them go through every little process for the comeback makes me genuinely emotional and paintful but also very very proud ♥ now that theyre back on the pitch, i hope they can shine brighter than ever🌟🌟!!
So annoying. I was at Beth's game. She had been battered all game and like she said, shouldn't have gone for the ball. It was hard to see but great to know she has support. This is a great series for the fans!
Thanks Arsenal for sharing this documentary 👍👍🇳🇱
Thanks for sharing your journey, Meado & Viv ❤ and also thanks Arsenal for sharing this documentary
this had me balling my eyes out. So so good, really looking forward to the future episodes. Thank you for sharing on this type of platform
So glad they both doing good back now...and really good documentation
Meadema forever.

What happened to the non-ACL leg?
whos, Viv? she had a hamstring graft from the other leg to create a new ACL - Beth used the patella idk why there was a different approach, Leah also seemingly used the hamstring from the other leg (don't know about Laura) would be interested to know why there was a different surgery for them
Beth and meade look nice how do they put up with Mccabe.
Mead injury was so annoying, after the game I couldn't maintained it considering Arsenal conceded late goal 😢😢😢.

The knee problems has to do with the pitch. The players don’t play on natural surfaces anymore.
ACL injuries happen on natural and artificial turf.
Your claim has been ruled out as a cause.
Are women footballers getting more acl injuries now because they are playing more and at a more intense level as they are getting alot better than they were a few years ago but not using the right facilities or something different that the men pro footballers do?
I think Viv said her minutes doubled from one season to another without any significant change 'behind the scenes' male footballers from a young age prepare the body to expect a high level of football, female footballers do not experience the same treatment - there is a distinct difference at academy level between the sexes in the way they are raised. the male body is used to training at a high level from a very young age but because the women's game has progressed at a fast pace the training hasn't kept up with the demands of the sport

My name is mohamed Amara Sesay i live in turkey i really like you can we be friends
Why does viv sound Scottish?
Why the hell does everyone insist on putting such bloody awful and unnecessary soundtracks on videos?
So they can enjoy scissoring again
Inappropriate.
i dontcry watching mens football programes 🥲
