Weston McKennie Out of Copa América Qualifier Due to Knee Injury

The U.S. team, already missing key players, faces another setback as McKennie leaves to recuperate from aggravated left knee tendinopathy.

Midfielder Weston McKennie will miss the United States’ Copa América qualifier at Trinidad and Tobago on Monday due to a knee injury.
McKennie's absence is another blow to a team already missing Christian Pulisic, Tim Weah and Tyler Adams.
McKennie played the entire match in Thursday’s 3-0 win at Austin, Texas, the first leg of the total-goals series.
The U.S. Soccer Federation announced that the 25-year-old McKennie left the team to recuperate from aggravated left knee tendinopathy, a condition in which tissue connecting muscle to a bone becomes inflamed.
