Cristian Roldan out with concussion

PORTLAND — Cristian Roldan was a late scratch from Saturday’s game after it was discovered that he suffered a concussion last week following a collision in the St. Louis City SC match. Roldan had been evaluated with neck pain and the team’s medical staff has been monitoring him throughout the week for additional concussion symptoms. But after being formally evaluated following training on Friday, he was placed in concussion protocol for the Portland Timbers match.

In addition to missing Saturday’s match, Roldan is also probably doubtful for Wednesday’s United States men’s national team friendly against Mexico.
