Galaxy's Baggio Husidic to sit out several weeks because of a broken leg bone

The Galaxy extended their unbeaten streak to four games with a 2-1 road win over Minnesota United on Sunday but the victory is proving to be a costly one, with the team losing midfielder Baggio Husidic to a broken leg bone. Midfielder Joao Pedro and center back Jelle Van Damme also limped off because of injuries.

Husidic, who left the field on a stretcher in the eighth minute, could be out until late summer, further weakening a midfield that is already without national team players Jermaine Jones and Sebastian Lletget. The Galaxy returned from Minnesota on Monday afternoon and Husidic is scheduled to see a medical specialist Tuesday.
