Inter MiamiSuffers new injury
Reguilon subbed off in the second half of Saturday's 2-1 loss to Toronto after picking up an apparent injury, Franco Panizo of Miami Total Futbol reports.
Analysis: Reguilon's physical difficulties have been a constant limitation throughout his first MLS season, but he had started in eight of the last nine league game weeks prior to this appearance. The severity of his current issue is still unclear, making his status a doubt for upcoming matches. If he's eventually ruled out, his place in the starting lineup could be taken by Noah Allen.
Plays 14 minutes Wednesday
Reguilon (hamstring) appeared off the bench during the Leagues Cup round one victory over Atletico San Luis.
Analysis: Reguilon returned to action after being excluded from the previous league game versus Columbus Crew due to a minor muscle issue. The left-back was fit enough only for a few minutes as a substitute, replacing standout performer Noah Allen towards the end of the second half against the Potosinos. Once the Spaniard is ready for a full workload, he'll likely move back into the starting lineup at the expense of either Allen or Ian Fray. In that case, Reguilon should offer two-way value as a highly offensive full-back with set-piece duties.
Doubtful with hamstring concern
Reguilon is dealing with a hamstring problem that puts his presence in Saturday's clash with Columbus at risk, per the MLS injury report.
Analysis: Reguilon had been healthy in recent weeks after recovering from an earlier hamstring problem, so this could be a concern if the injury-prone defender is dealing with a recurrence, which makes the club's caution all the more understandable. His availability at left-back is important on a week where the defensive picture is already complicated by Ian Fray's suspension. Miami will likely not rush him if there's any doubt about the hamstring being fully resolved.
10 crosses in 3-2 win
Reguilon generated four shots (one on goal), 10 crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 3-2 win against Chicago Fire. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 97th minute.
Analysis: Regulion took four shots and attempted 10 crosses as Inter Miami beat Chicago Fire 3-2. This doubled the most shots he had in a game and also doubled the most crosses he had attempted in an MLS game. The three corners he took were also his most since joining the league. With only one shot on target and one completed cross, he was unable to contribute towards the victory for his side.
First MLS goal off bench
Reguilon scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 4-2 win over Toronto FC.
Analysis: Reguilon checked in during the 68th minute and wasted no time making an impact, bagging his first MLS goal in the 73rd by finishing off a Lionel Messi assist to push the score to 4-0 and effectively ice the game before Toronto's late push trimmed the margin. He logged one goal while flashing sharp movement down the left flank in his 22-minute run, applying pressure on Toronto's right side and holding his own defensively as Miami closed things out. Reguilon now has one goal through three MLS appearances since joining the squad, and his two-way ability gives coach Guillermo Hoyos a steady option at left-back as long as he can stay healthy after dealing with injuries since preseason.
Option Saturday
Reguilon (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Toronto.
Analysis: Reguilon was back in training this week, so it is no surprise to see the defender back in the team sheet. He is still a decent left-back, especially for MLS standards, so he will likely eye a starting role in the coming games. However, he is known to be injury-prone, so they may take his return cautiously.
Back in training
Reguilon (hamstring) was pictured back in training for Inter Miami, per the Inter Miami News Hub.
Analysis: Reguilon is back in training and will look to be fit for the trip to Toronto on Saturday following his hamstring injury. Injuries remain an issue for the defender, only playing twice this season, starting both times with just 113 minutes of play.
