Starts in friendly

Amundsen (thigh) started in Sunday's friendly against Burnley.

Analysis: Amundsen was back on the playing field after he entered the World Cup break with the injury, as the defender started in a friendly. This is major news for the team as they return to action, as he was their starting left-back before the injury. He will look to immediately return to that role as they resume play against NYCFC on July 22.

Questionable with thigh issue

Amundsen is a doubt for Sunday's clash against New York City FC as he deals with a thigh injury, according to the MLS player status report.

Analysis: Amundsen could miss his first MLS match in almost a year if he fails to recover from this problem. In that case, Yevgen Cheberko may be able to fill in at left-back. Amundsen has been a solid defensive performer, so losing him would be tough news for the club for as long as he's sidelined.
