Sounders: Chad Marshall Subbed Out with Migraine

Sounders fans had a scare during Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Toronto. Seattle center back and three-time MLS Defender of the Year Chad Marshall was subbed out almost randomly for rookie Tony Alfaro (who keeps impressing us all I may add) in the 51st-minute. Even though he did take a shot to the head earlier in the match, Sigi clarified to reporters that Marshall didn’t have a concussion or anything of that sort, it was just a migraine.

He had a migraine headache. It wasn’t a concussion, although when he went down he got a slight knee to the head in the first half and he just got a headache where he became really light sensitive.
