Saliba (undisclosed) started and played for 120 minutes in Thursday's 3-1 loss to Union St. Gilloise.
Analysis: Saliba has been out for just over a week after a training injury, but returned to play Thursday, not just seeing the field but playing the full 20 minutes after the match went into extra time. This is good news for the midfielder as he prepares for the World Cup with Canada, appearing to be at full health already. He will now just have another month to keep his fitness high, likely to be a starter for the Canadian squad.
Picks up injury
Saliba suffered an injury in training and is out for the next few weeks, according to Kjell Doms of HLN.
Analysis: Saliba is hitting the sidelines just ahead of the end of the season, as the midfielder is suffering from an injury that could keep him out for the next few weeks. This will be something to monitor for the midfielder over the coming month, as any sort of setback could put his World Cup participation with Canada in jeopardy. He is a potential starter for the national team, so they will monitor his situation closely, needing all units available for a World Cup partly hosted in his home country.
