'We Need to See:' Uncertainty Over Chris Richards' Injury As World Cup Looms

U.S. center back Chris Richards (ankle ligament injury) won’t play Sunday’s tune-up vs. Senegal after injuring his left ankle with Crystal Palace.
He flew to the U.S. training center but is staying behind to rehab; Pochettino says they’ll reevaluate his status next week ahead of the June 12 World Cup opener vs. Paraguay.
Pochettino can replace injured players up to 24 hours before the first match, so Richards’ roster spot remains flexible.
