Will miss next match Alba will not be an option for Saturday's match against Orlando, according to manager Tata Martino.

Impact Alba was an early exit from the match against Toronto due to fatigue, according to manager Tata Martino, and will not be an option for the next match, as Miami prioritizes the U.S. Open Cup. It does not seem like his injury is serious after Martino stated, "I don't believe it's anything new or anything worse than what they already have. It's fatigue. I don't think it's a muscular injury," but it does seem like they are just preserving him for the highly anticipated U.S. Open Cup final. Alba will miss this weekend's match but should be back in the lineup for Wednesday's final.
