Atlante United will be without one of its first choice center backs as the club announced that Fernando Meza will miss 2-3 weeks with a knee injury.
Meza suffered the sustained late in the first half of the team’s 2-0 win against Nashville SC at Mercedes-Benz Stadium Saturday. Meza returned to the field of play after being treated for roughly a minute before the conclusion of the first half.
The injury news confirms that Atlanta will be without two members of its back four that started Saturday’s match after the MLS Disciplinary Committee levied a one-match suspension on Franco Escobar Monday.
