TORONTO — Atlanta United and Toronto FC will both be missing some important pieces at BMO Field on Saturday, but for different reasons.
Atlanta arrives down six internationals, including designated players Giorgos Giakoumakis and Thiago Almada.
And on the plus side, captain Jonathan Osorio may be able to see some minutes despite a hip injury that prevented him from joining Canada for Saturday's Copa America qualifier against Trinidad and Tobago in Frisco, Texas. "Don't forget to pack your sunscreen and swim trunks," the TFC social media team tweeted cheekily at Atlanta, where the forecast calls for a high of 19 C and rain Saturday.
The 22-year-old has also made four appearances with the Argentine senior side and was part of the squad that won the 2022 World Cup. Herdman, who has been on both sides of the equation thanks to his time as Canada coach, shakes his head at MLS playing through FIFA international windows.
