It’s been a relatively clean bill of health start to the year for Columbus Crew SC.
Columbus began the season with Waylon Francis (shoulder surgery) and Dilly Duka (calf contusion) recovering from injuries, but both have made it back to full training and Francis played 90 minutes against the Portland Timbers two weeks ago.
The only injury that has forced a starter to miss time is the one suffered by Jonathan Mensah. The center back left the match with the Timbers in the second half after a collision with Diego Valeri.
