For all the good feelings around the Seattle Sounders’ 3-1 road win over the Colorado Rapids, there was some serious cause for concern after both Osvaldo Alonso and Chad Marshall were forced out of the first half with injuries.
Of the two, Alonso’s appeared more serious. The midfielder was tackled from behind, immediately grabbed his knee and was ultimately taken to the locker room in a stretcher.
Marshall appeared to have his ankle hit behind the play. He had to be removed, but was at least able to stay on the sideline with his ankle iced.
