April 5 : PSV Eindhoven captain Jerdy Schouten sustained a cruciate ligament injury in the match against Utrecht that required surgery, his club said on Sunday, ruling the Netherlands midfielder out of the World Cup.
Schouten suffered the injury in the second half of Saturday's 4-3 victory when he twisted his knee and the 29-year-old was taken off on a stretcher.
PSV said further examinations on Sunday confirmed the injury which generally takes six to nine months for a full recovery.
"When it happened, I actually felt immediately that something was wrong," Schouten said.
