No Broken Bones for Injured Defender
Good news for Nat Borchers — nothing is broken.
The central defender had his right foot X-rayed today, after injuring it during RSL's 2-2 draw with the Los Angeles Galaxy last night, and the test came back negative, a team spokesman said, meaning Borchers suffered only a sprain in his collision with the Galaxy's Edson Buddle. Borchers had to leave the game midway through the second half — until then, he had played every minute of the season — and is questionable to play at Chivas USA on Saturday.
If Borchers cannot go, expect veteran Robbie Russell to remain in central defense in his place, with Tony Beltran probably getting another starting nod at right back after a strong performance against the Galaxy.
