TorontoNets on two shots
Cimermancic scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal) and one chance created in Wednesday's 3-3 draw against Charlotte FC.
Analysis: Cimermancic took a pair of shots from the midfield and scored one of them during a three-all goalfest against Charlotte. The midfielder also created a chance, but it wasn't finished. This match was all offense and a trip to Miami could be another high-scoring affair for Cimermancic and co.
Starting versus New England
Cimermancic (thigh) is in the starting XI for Saturday's match against New England Revolution.
Analysis: Cimermancic will make his third start of the year following his absence due to muscular problems. He'll be immediately required to cover the spot of Jonathan Osorio (knee) in central midfield, a position in which he could contribute through passes and defensive output. It remains unclear if Cimermancic is ready for significant minutes, so his value may be limited if he's subbed off at some point.
Picks up adductor injury
Cimermancic is out for the time being with an adductor injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.
Analysis: Cimermancic is a new addition to Toronto's already extensive injury report this matchday, and at this point, the club's injury situation has become genuinely historic in its scope and duration. He's a defender whose absence adds to an already stretched midfield. No timetable has been given, and with minimal options left in the first team midfield, the club will have to do some shifting around to form a new starting XI.
