If the Seattle Sounders are to get past the Portland Timbers in the Western Conference semifinals they will have to do it without center back Chad Marshall.
Sounders head coach Brian Schmetzer said Marshall underwent meniscus surgery on his right knee and is out for Thursday’s second leg against the Timbers. It’s unclear on how long Marshall will be out.
“When I get any further updates on will let you all know,” Schmetzer said.
Marshall isn’t the only member of the Sounders who suffered an injury in Sunday’s 2-1 loss in Portland. Midfielder Christian Roldan exited the contest with a hip flexor strain and is day-to-day.
