Still not training Barroso (lower body) was not in training Tuesday, according to Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports.

Impact Barroso's playoff chances took a hit Tuesday, as he was not involved in training ahead of Wednesday's playoff game. That said, the defender appears to be out for the match, unlikely to make the call after his absence from training. This could end his season after a campaign full of injuries, with Jonathan Dean likely to continue on the right flank if Barroso is out.
