Mexico midfielder Gutierrez set for two weeks out, other El Tri players set to make injury returns

Mexico's injury crisis is clearing, with most of El Tri's injury players eligible for selection for Sunday's Gold Cup group match against Martinique.

However, Tata Martino won't be able to call upon midfielder Erick Gutierrez. The 24-year-old left Mexico's 3-1 win over Canada in the first half clutching at his hamstring. He was replaced by Andres Guardado, who went on to score twice as Mexico continued its perfect start to the Martino era.

Gutierrez has been evaluated, with his hamstring injury confirmed and a timetable set that will keep him out for the next two weeks.
