Sporting Sounds: Matt Besler discusses injury challenge, lauds Abdul Rwatubyaye on Sports Radio 810 WHB

A recent wave of injuries has Sporting Kansas City’s roster stretched as the Month of May beckons. Among those sidelined is captain Matt Besler, who made his customary appearance on Sports Radio 810 WHB this morning.

Speaking with The Border Patrol host Nate Bukaty, Besler acknowledged the fact that Sporting will have to navigate the near term without some of the club’s biggest contributors. The defender is joined on the injury report by veterans Roger Espinoza and Rodney Wallace, outside backs Jimmy Medranda and Jaylin Lindsey, and forward Erik Hurtado. All five will be out for the foreseeable future, while center back Andreu Fontas and midfielder Gedion Zelalem were listed as questionable last week.
