Nashville SC will be without striker Sam Surridge for the crucial second leg of their CONCACAF Champions Cup quarterfinal against Club América due to a hamstring injury. A Nashville SC spokesperson confirmed that Surridge is classified as 'day-to-day' and did not travel with the team to Mexico City. The striker has been a key player, scoring eight goals in 11 matches this season, leading the team in scoring. In his absence, Warren Madrigal started at forward alongside Hany Mukhtar and Cristian Espinoza. The first leg of the series ended in a 0-0 draw at Geodis Park on April 7. Nashville can advance with a win or a tie of 1-1 or greater, while Club América must win to progress. If the match is tied 0-0 after 90 minutes, it will go to extra time and penalties, with the away goals rule not applying in that scenario. The winner will face either the Seattle Sounders or Tigres UANL in the semifinals scheduled for April 28-30.
