Report: Pity Martinez injures hamstring in friendly vs. Venezuela

To add to a string of misfortunes for Pity Martinez since beginning his Atlanta United career, a report from TyC Sports says the attacker suffered a left hamstring injury in Argentina’s 3-1 loss to Venezuela in a friendly on Friday in Madrid.

The severity of the injury was not immediately known, but Martinez will reportedly not participate in Argentina’s second friendly match of the current FIFA international break.

Martinez, who has yet to get himself on the scoresheet for the Five Stripes in competitive play, has hardly stopped playing since his run to a Copa Libertadores title with his former club, River Plate.
