Sporting Kansas City has a fresh injury concern to deal with, as now two names populate the club’s injury report heading into tonight’s clash with Seattle Sounders FC at Children’s Mercy Park.
Diego Rubio remains listed as out with a torn ACL and he is joined on the injury report by forward Soony Saad, who is questionable with an ankle sprain.
Seattle is still dealing with the absence of star center back Roman Torres, who is out with a hamstring strain. Also listed as out is Henry Wingo, who similarly to Saad also has an ankle sprain.
The Sounders are also sweating on the fitness of key midfielder Osvaldo Alonso, who is questionable with quad tightness, while Aaron Kovar (groin surgery) and Nouhou Tolo (shoulder dislocation) are also listed as questionable.
Tonight’s showdown with the reigning MLS Cup champions kicks off at 7:30 p.m. CT from Children’s Mercy Park, with tickets available via SeatGeek. The game will be broadcast on FOX Sports Kansas City + and the FOX Sports GO app, while Sports Radio 810 WHB and La Grande 1340 AM will have the call on the radio.
