Milton Valenzuela leaves Lower.com Field opener early with injury

The Columbus Crew has dealt with a handful of injuries throughout the first portion of the Major League Soccer season. Nearly every Black & Gold player has missed a game due to injury with the team rarely having a squad that is fully fit.

Following a three-week international break, the thought was the team would be healthier, but that turned out to not be the case as more players battled injuries over the last couple of matches. But heading into the second portion of the season on Saturday, the Crew was as healthy as it had been in some time.
