Maximiliano Falcon - Soccer News, Rumors, & Updates

Fit for starting role Falcon (knee) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's contest versus Austin FC.

Impact Falcon completed his recovery from a minor knee issue following his return to practice earlier in the week. The defender missed the previous couple of MLS matchups due to the issue, before which he served as an ever-present member of Miami's back line. He's now expected to stay in the starting lineup, limiting Gonzalo Lujan to a backup role. In that case, Falcon's production could come mostly from passes, clearances and interceptions.

Back in training Falcon (knee) was involved in Tuesday's practice with the team after being sidelined since March 11, according to Alex Windley of FanSided.com.

Impact Falcon has missed two MLS matches due to the injury following three 90-minute appearances at the beginning of the season. However, he's now close to being available again, providing a defensive boost to the squad. He previously tallied six clearances, six interceptions and two tackles across three matches played. His return to the starting XI could potentially push Gonzalo Lujan to a bench role.
