"The Current fell 1-0 to the Houston Dash on Saturday, but it's star Temwa Chawinga that may go down as the far more impactful loss. After suffering a non-contact injury in the first half, the forward was carried off the field. While the severity of the injury isn't known, Kansas City head coach Vlatko Andonovski said after the game that Chawinga's injury was in the "upper leg" rather than the knee. Even so, plenty of folks in Kansas City will be holding their breath."
"It's been a no good, very bad last few days for the Washington Spirit. First, Trinity Rodman went down with a knee injury during a midweek Concacaf Champions Cup clash with Monterrey. Then they lost to the Orlando Pride on Saturday. An unfortunate deflection and a penalty concession turned a 2-1 lead at half-time into a 3-2 loss at full-time for the Spirit. Still, the first defeat in more than four months won't sting nearly as much as the uncertainty surrounding Rodman's return to play."
Temwa Chawinga suffered a non-contact upper-leg injury after being carried off in Kansas City's 1-0 loss to the Houston Dash, leaving severity uncertain and raising concern. Trinity Rodman sustained a knee injury during a midweek Concacaf Champions Cup match with Monterrey, and Washington then lost 3-2 to Orlando after leading 2-1 at halftime following a deflection and a conceded penalty. Marta entered at halftime for Orlando, forced an own goal and converted the winning penalty to secure a 3-2 comeback. NJ/NY Gotham approached the match against Racing Louisville with home possession control.
