Angel City FC defender Savy King has been released from the hospital, a little over a week after she collapsed on the field during a match and needed surgery to treat a heart abnormality.

King posted a photo of herself in the hospital holding a heart-shaped pillow and giving a thumbs up on social media Sunday.

"I'm still finding the words to express just how much your love and support have meant to me over these past few days. What I do know is that I wouldn't be getting through this without my incredible family by my side, my amazing teammates who have shown up for me and prayed for me, the fans, the entire soccer community, and the outstanding medical team here at ACFC who saved my life and cared for me every step of the way," she wrote on the post.
