Gueria was given a yellow card by Trinidad and Tobago referee Quincy Williams.<\/p>\n<p>After being examined by an athletic trainer, the 27-year-old attacking winger left the field and was replaced by Diego Luna in the 30th minute. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think he feels something in his hamstring,&#8221; Pochettino said. &#8220;Tomorrow he will fly to Italy. Tonight we will assess and see how he goes. I can&#8217;t say anything at the moment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>    Malik Tillman didn&#8217;t dress because he felt cramps in his thighs during Monday&#8217;s workout.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I hope it won&#8217;t be a big problem,&#8221; Pochettino said of the Bayer Leverkusen midfielder.<\/p>\n<p>Pochettino noted that last week&#8217;s home games were played in Austin, Texas, where the temperature was 86 degrees at kickoff, and Colorado, where the temperature was 66 degrees on Tuesday and much colder during Monday&#8217;s practice.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s a big risk,&#8221; the coach said. &#8220;I don&#8217;t want to say to Christian or Malik that we feel anything because of (the weather), but I think it was really tough for the players to prepare for the game and then play. We&#8217;re really sad about the situation. &#8230; It can affect your body and everything. &#8230; That&#8217;s something we need to fix for the future, no, when we come from Europe.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>___<\/p>\n<p>AP Soccer: <span class=\"LinkEnhancement\">https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/soccer<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/pulisic-hamstring-injury-8942a741dcb8b8a9c9cbc50d5b43a87d\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>COMMERCE CITY, Colo.
