Dema, Altidore and Mathis – Injury Updates

By: Dave Martinez | September 14th, 2007

First off, look at that armband on Dema . . . looks great!

Ok folks, here are your updates on our injured Bulls, as we look ahead to Saturday and our encounter with the Fire, @ Chicago . . . .

DEMA KOVALENKO

Dema did a great interview on Big Apple Soccer where he voiced his desire to play extended minutes, in an effort to advance his healing and the teams winning desires. My guess? Dema could finally get the nod in the all too familiar home of the Fire. And judging by his most recent words, I would say that prediction is a lock.

JOZY ALTIDORE and CLINT MATHIS

Arena came out yesterday and stated that two of our top scorers will be day to day, possible game time decisions.

Jozy has been suffering from a leg injury, as has Mathis, which was last described as a deep bruise, or leg contusion.

Playing Cuat and Wanchope, Rolfe and the boys at home wont be a picnic. We need our guys healthy and ready to perform.
