As if missing Raúl Ruidíaz for a virtual must-win game wasn’t bad enough, the Seattle Sounders now face the prospect of missing him for more games after the striker was forced out of Perú’s match in the 10th minute with an apparent ankle injury.
The injury happened around the 10th minute when Ruidíaz was chasing down a ball and appeared to be stepped on. He tried to walk it off but was replaced rather quickly by Gianluca Lapadula.
It was not immediately clear how serious the injury was and if he’d be forced to miss any time with the Sounders.
