Forced off in defeat
Soma (undisclosed) was forced off in the 71st minute of Sunday's 4-2 loss against Vancouver with an apparent injury.
Analysis: Soma was forced off in the second half of Sunday's defeat against the Whitecaps and no details have been provided on the nature of the issue yet, but Soma has approximately two months to recover before San Diego's next fixture against Colorado on July 22 following the World Cup break, giving him a realistic window to return to full fitness before MLS action resumes. The club will assess the extent of the injury over the coming days before providing any further clarity on his timeline.
Provides assist off bench
Soma assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus FC Cincinnati.
Analysis: Soma came on at halftime in Saturday's 3-3 draw with Cincinnati and immediately played a role in his side's comeback, delivering the precise pass that sent Amahl Pellegrino through on goal to level the match at 2-2 with a composed one-on-one finish. The Portuguese midfielder operates as a progressive ball-carrier in central areas who links midfield and attack, and he has increasingly impressed as an energetic option off the bench. Soma has now recorded one goal and two assists across eight MLS appearances this season.
