Kappelhof, Azira welcome return to training after missing MLS is Back tournament
It was a long few weeks for Fire midfielder Micheal Azira and defender Johan Kappelhof.
The pair -- out with injuries -- were forced to stay behind while the rest of their teammates participated in the recently completed MLS is Back Tournament in Orlando.
“You feel like there’s something wrong,” Azira said. “You’re supposed to be with the team, but you’re not there.”
That feeling has made their respective presences at training all the more welcome amid the Fire’s return to Chicago and their on-going preparation for the league’s continuation of regular season play.
