Equalizes on Saturday
Romney scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Colorado Rapids.
Analysis: Romney netted the equalizer in the 57th minute assisted by Ronaldo Vieira. Romney covered over nine kilometers, made 23 passes and contributed defensively with four clearances and tackle. He has now played every single minute in the last five appearances and this was his second goal of the campaign.
Bench option Saturday
Romney (concussion) is on the bench in Saturday's trip to Austin.
Analysis: Romney will be in contention for center- or left-back spots going forward, having served as a rotational option throughout the season. The defender, who cleared the concussion protocol following his forced exit against Houston, had been active in terms of passes and clearances before that incident. He could be expected to contend mainly with Max Floriani for playing time in upcoming matches.
Leaves with concussion in draw
Romney was forced to exit after activating the concussion protocol in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Houston Dynamo.
Analysis: Romney was treated after getting hurt on a fall during the second half of the weekend match. This could be significant news for the team if the defender is unable to play in subsequent contests, with his exact status depending on his progress over the next week. During his time on the field, he had helped the Earthquakes to their first clean sheet in the last 16 MLS games. Max Floriani subbed on after the incident and could be the main beneficiary of playing time if Romney is ruled out.
