Another withdrawal!

"Another Overseas-based player and selectee for the China engagement, Toronto FC's Ryan Johnson, also pulled out of the side, with an injury complaint, even as he appeared for his team in a MLS match against DC United on Saturday where he played 90 minutes.

"Please accept this e-mail as confirmation that Ryan Johnson suffered an ankle sprain during the second half of our midweek game in Nicaragua. He was substituted as a precaution and received medical treatment for the next few days leading up to tonight's (Saturday's) game vs DC United. He participated in tonight's game and complained of pain and currently has swelling and decreased strength. It is our medical recommendation that Ryan stay home to receive on-going treatment for this injury as extended travel would only hinder his recovery," was the explanation via e-mail by the Canadian club's head athletic therapist, Carmelo Lobue."
