El Brujo expected to only miss 1-2 weeks with injury

The good news is Jose Andres Martinez didn’t break anything when he went down in a heap against the Chicago Fire in the Philadelphia Union’s preseason match against the Chicago Fire.

The bad news is he is one of several players on the team out injured with the first leg of the Concacaf Champions League Round of 16 two weeks away.

“Fortunately for us, it looks like it will be about a one to two week recovery for Jose,” head coach Jim Curtin said about the MRI results during his weekly press conference on Tuesday.
