Doing individual work

Roldan (hamstring) took part in limited practice apart from the rest of the team Wednesday, Niko Moreno of Pulso Sports reports.

Analysis: Roldan is still unlikely to start as he needs to resume full training before being ready for significant action. The versatile player will have better chances of featuring after the World Cup break, potentially regaining a center-back spot over Antino Lopez, Kim Kee-Hee and Stuart Hawkins. Prior to his absence on May 17 due to the injury, Roldan had operated as a defensive contributor over the initial stretch of the season.

Out with injury

Roldan is out for the time being with a hamstring injury, per the MLS injury report.

Analysis: Roldan is a new addition to Seattle's report this matchday with a hamstring injury, and losing a defender who contributes in both phases is a meaningful development for the Sounders. He has only missed two other starts all season, so this is a bit concerning. That said, Kim Kee-Hee or Stuart Hawkins could start in his place.
