Marsch Says Canada's Flores Will Miss World Cup After ACL Tear
Canada head coach Jesse Marsch announced that promising forward Marcelo Flores will miss the World Cup after suffering a torn anterior cruciate ligament. Flores underwent surgery and faces a lengthy rehabilitation period.
Marsch warned that the loss will limit Canada's attacking options. The team will face tough opponents in the group stage, and Flores' absence creates a tactical challenge.
The coach added that younger players will be given a chance as Canada focuses on the tournament.
