"She will continue to be monitored closely by our medical team," an Arsenal spokesperson told ESPN's Emily Keogh.

Maanum was administered oxygen on the pitch and treated for eight to nine minutes before eventually was taken off on a stretcher. She was replaced by Alessia Russo.

"Of course, it looks very scary when Frida goes down. It's very easy to have the focus and emotions drawn at that point," head coach Jonas Eidevall told reporters. "But the reality is we have an excellent medical team, and they're going to look after that situation and we need to focus on football, and we were able to do that."

"The first thing after the game, we don't care about winning we care about how is it with Frida?" he added. "And so happy that she's doing well. That's much more important than this."

We're all thinking of you, Frida ❤️

Maanum's best friend, Stina Blackstenius, scored the game-winning goal for the Gunners in extra time.

"I think it was written in the stars that her best mate went and scored the winner for her," Russo told reporters. "Frida is a massive player and plays with every single bit of her body, she did that again today and we just hope she is OK."

Maanum, 24, has made 28 appearances in all competitions for Arsenal this season.
