Rodrigo Echeverria News: Banned for yellow card accumulation

Echeverria is serving a one-match suspension after receiving his fifth yellow card of the season in Saturday's meeting with Tigres.

Echeverria will miss the upcoming trip to Tijuana, where James Rodriguez should return to the initial lineup, possibly causing Fernando Beltran to move back and cover the Chilean's defensive duties. After serving his suspension, Echeverria will be available to return in week 10 against Mazatlan. He has been very active as a holding midfielder lately, and his most relevant numbers are his averages of 34.9 accurate passes and 1.2 tackles per game.
