Picks up abdominal issue
Bell is out for Saturday's match at Sporting Kansas City because of a lower abdomen problem, per the MLS Player Status Report.
Analysis: Bell has been a flexible piece for Austin, shuttling between central and left-sided defensive roles, and he already missed a match earlier this season with a pubis problem. This new abdominal designation points to another stretch of uncertainty heading into the final stages of the campaign. The club will have to rearrange its shape again with its playoff hopes on the line, potentially turning to a back three formed by Guilherme Biro, Oleksandr Svatok and Brendan Hines-Ike.
Provides first assist of season
Bell assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-3 draw against San Diego FC.
Analysis: Bell delivered the cross that Christian Ramirez headed home for Austin's second goal, cutting the deficit to one in the 82nd minute. The assist was his first of the campaign and gave him his third goal contribution of the season. Bell has totaled two goals and one assist across 21 MLS appearances, including 12 starts.
