Atlanta United injury updates on Garza, Larentowicz

Though Atlanta United players Jeff Larentowicz and Greg Garza were forced to leave Atlanta United’s 1-0 win against Minnesota United on Saturday, manager Gerardo Martino said he doesn’t think either injury will cause the players to miss any games.

Larentowicz, a defensive midfielder, was subbed off in the 74th minute with an ankle injury. Andrew Wheeler-Omiunu came on for him.

Garza, a left fullback, left the game with a shoulder injury in added time. He was able to return for the final minutes, though it looked as if he couldn’t raise his right arm. Garza sustained a separated shoulder in last year’s MLS All-Star Game that forced him to miss several games.
