Da Costa was forced off in the 40th minute of Wednesday's 4-0 win over San Luis in the Leagues Cup after suffering a shoulder injury that was deemed not too serious following quick scans, coach Phil Neville said in a press conference, according to Alex Barnes of Stumptown Footy.

Da Costa scored a stunning volley in the first minute of Wednesday's Leagues Cup opener before being forced off in the 40th minute with a shoulder injury sustained during a counterattack. Post-match scans revealed no damage to his shoulder, suggesting the Timbers playmaker may not miss much time, if any. If he is sidelined, Ariel Lassiter or Omir Fernandez would be the likely replacements until he returns to full fitness.
