Marcelo Flores will miss the World Cup after rupturing his ACL during Tigres UANL’s CONCACAF Champions Cup final against Toluca. The injury came just days after Jesse Marsch named him in Canada’s 26-man squad.
Flores hurt his knee 15 minutes after coming on and later confirmed the diagnosis on social media. Marsch said Canada were devastated for him, with no replacement added before upcoming friendlies against Uzbekistan and Republic of Ireland.
