Former Dortmund player Marco Reus was substituted due to injury in Major League Soccer. Reus had to leave the field in the 66th minute of his Los Angeles Galaxy’s 4:2 win against Vancouver Whitecaps. Immediately after the 1:3 defeat shortly before, he sat down on the grass and grabbed the back of his right thigh.
He had hardly had any notable moments in the match up to that point. After his role as a substitute in the 2:4 defeat against the Portland Timbers, the 35-year-old was back in the starting eleven against Vancouver. For Reus, who is playing football abroad for the first time in his career after twelve years at Borussia Dortmund, it was the fifth appearance since his move to Major League Soccer.
The Los Angeles Galaxy are leaders of the Western Conference and have already qualified for the playoffs.
