On Sunday, in the final minutes of the Columbus Crew’s 1-1 draw against the New York Red Bulls, midfielder Lucas Zelarayán went to the ground, holding his right knee. Zelarayán attempted to return to the match after staying down for some time and receiving treatment, but needed assistance getting off the field from the Crew’s medical staff. Immediately following the match, Zelarayán’s status was unknown by head coach Caleb Porter, who hadn’t yet spoken with the training staff about the midfielder’s injury.
Monday morning, the Armenian National Team tweeted that Zelarayán was out for the team’s upcoming international friendlies.
