Nascimento (undisclosed) suffered a knock and was helped off in Wednesday's 2-1 victory over Pachuca in the Leagues Cup, according to Damian Calhoun of the Southern California News Group.

Nascimento was forced off in the 63rd minute of Wednesday's victory over Pachuca in the Leagues Cup after suffering a knock that prevented him from continuing. The forward will likely be assessed in the coming days to determine the extent of the issue, and if it turns out to be a serious one, Lucas Sanabria could take on a larger role in upcoming games for the Galaxy while Joseph Paintsil may be used as a striker.
