Curtin: Bořek Dočkal 100% will play against Columbus

Bou0159ek Dou010dkal’s long-awaited Philadelphia Union debut is expected to happen on Saturday afternoon at home against Columbus Crew. Whether that debut comes with the Czech Republic international in the starting lineup or off the bench though still remains a question mark.

“His best two days of training have been his last two days,” Curtin said during his weekly press conference on Wednesday. “Happy with where he’s at. The ankle is fully healed. It will be a matter of deciding the minute load. He’ll play a role in this game; that is 100 percent certain barring an injury or something freakish happening the rest of the way.
