Chivas USA practiced today with some absences such as Venezuelan striker Giancarlo Maldonado, who played 69 minutes in the 3-1 loss to Panama on Wednesday night in Caracas, Venezuela. Defender Michael Umaña is traveling back from Asuncion, Paraguay, where Costa Rica fell 2-0 against Paraguay also on Wednesday night. US National Team defender Jonathan Bornstein had a very light session after participating with the National Team on Tuesday against Brazil in New Jersey. “We have prepared the game with the guys that stayed behind. Giancarlo, Michael and Jhonny are very important [to this team], but you never know what can happen in those games, injuries, long flights. We’ll see how they feel. Johnny is healthy, we’ll see about Giancarlo and Michael. We need the best eleven healthy,rested and sharp for this game against Seattle.”
