Dealing with ankle issue
Malacia (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's MLS clash against D.C. United after being substituted at halftime Wednesday and missing Friday's training session, according to coach Pat Noonan, per Laurel Pfahler.
Analysis: Malacia is dealing with an ankle issue that forced him off at halftime Wednesday, raising concerns about his availability for Saturday's trip to D.C. United. The left wing-back was unable to participate in Friday's training session, leaving his status uncertain ahead of the weekend. His potential absence could open the door for Bryan Ramirez to start at left wing-back, providing Cincinnati with an alternative on the flank. A final decision on Malacia's involvement has yet to be confirmed.
Nine crosses in loss
Malacia registered nine crosses (five accurate) and four chances created in Sunday's 2-0 loss against Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Malacia made his third consecutive start Sunday and put together another good performance. He led the team in crosses, accurate crosses and chances created, providing a spark on the attack from the left. He's been a great addition since joining the club in September and will play an important role over the final stretch of the season as Cincinnati attempts to hold onto the final playoff spot.
