Coming off a rough loss in St. Louis on Saturday night, MNUFC returned to training in Blaine. With the heat gone and the fall weather in the air, it was a perfect day this morning in the north suburbs. With two key defensive players out for this week, it could be a rough week for the Loons.

Highlight of the training session was a four goal, 2v2 game played in small 1-2 minute increments. You can see one of the drills in full on our BlueSky using the link above.
Jefferson Díaz missed training due to illness and Peter Stroud is still completely out of training after re-aggravating his injury earlier in the second half of the season. Morris Duggan was also in "80-90% of training" after missing Saturday's match in St. Louis due to "tightness" per Cameron Knowles comments.
Michael Boxall and Kyle Duncan will miss this weekends match due to yellow card accumulation (Boxall) and a sending off (Duncan). If Díaz and Duggan, who are currently questionable, miss this weekend it could be really rough for Minnesota United. You can watch full comments from manager Cameron Knowles below.
