Suffers hamstring injury

Sabaly is out for the time being due to a hamstring injury, per the MLS Player Status Report.

Analysis: Sabaly is a new addition to Vancouver's report this matchday with a hamstring injury, and the timing is notable given that Schonlau and Priso have cleared the report this matchday, suggesting the club's hamstring situation was improving before Sabaly picked one up. He's been a useful wide option for the Whitecaps, and his absence this weekend is a step backward for their attacking width. Kenji Cabrera is likely to continue in a starting role due to his absence.

Assists in 3-2 win

Sabaly assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Wednesday's 3-2 win over FC Dallas. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 53rd minute.

Analysis: Sabaly assisted Sebastian Berhalter for his third goal involvement of the season. The assist came from his only chance created of the game and he has created at least one chance in each of the last seven games. This is his fourth start in a row, but he hasn't played more than 68 minutes in these games.
