Scotland and Real Madrid forward Caroline Weir has ruptured her anterior cruciate ligament, the Spanish club have confirmed.<\/p>\n

Weir suffered the injury during Scotland\u2019s Nations League draw against Belgium on Tuesday and becomes the second Scottish international to rupture their ACL this week, after Manchester United\u2019s Emma Watson.<\/p>\n

Weir, who was Real Madrid\u2019s player of the season last year after scoring 28 goals in her debut campaign, is set to undergo surgery in the coming days and is the latest star of the women\u2019s game to rupture their ACL. <\/p>\n

The 28-year-old was forced off in the first half of Scotland\u2019s match against Belgium at Hampden, with manager Pedro Martinez Losa criticising the officials after the match for not protecting Weir.<\/p>\n

Losa accused Belgium of targeting Weir and said after the match: \u201cI am very angry, we have an injury to our best player, the opponent was looking to deliberately hurt her and it is the duty of the referee to protect the players.\u201d<\/p>\n

The confirmation of Weir\u2019s injury comes just a day after Manchester United said Watson had ruptured her ACL during last Friday\u2019s defeat to England.<\/p>\n

Watson, 17, had signed from Rangers this summer and had yet to feature for United.<\/p>\n
