Rodman’s Status Uncertain for Spirit’s NWSL Quarterfinal vs. Racing Louisville

Her return will be a late medical decision after limited participation in Friday’s practice.

Overview

  • Rodman spent the media-open portion of Friday’s session in the gym before joining teammates at the end of practice, according to the club.
  • Head coach Adrián González described her recovery as day by day and said the staff remains optimistic while awaiting medical guidance.
  • The forward sustained a Grade 1 right MCL sprain on Oct. 15 against Monterrey and missed the Spirit’s final two regular-season matches.
  • Washington has been managing several absences and traveled with a 16-player roster last week, though Croix Bethune, Leicy Santos and Deborah Abiodun trained in some capacity Friday.
  • Rodman’s knee setback interrupted a recent USWNT call-up, and the No. 2 seed Spirit would host a semifinal at Audi Field if they defeat Racing Louisville.
