San DiegoSent off versus Whitecaps
Bombino received a red card as a substitute during Saturday's game against Vancouver Whitecaps.
Analysis: Bombino committed a foul that led to his second yellow card of the game after 72 minutes of play. This event makes the left-back ineligible for the July 22 meeting with Colorado, and he may then return to face FC Dallas. Kieran Sargeant, who got the start in the last game, should be the first option to feature in Bombino's absence.
Provides first assist of season
Bombino had an assist with his lone chance created while taking three shots (one on goal) and crossing twice inaccurately during Wednesday's 5-0 win over Austin.
Analysis: Bombino set up Marcus Ingvartsen in the 89th minute assisting San Diego's fourth goal. The assist was the first this season for Bombino as he's combined for three chances created, eight crosses and seven clearances over his last three starts since returning from a three match absence due to a lower body injury.
Starts versus LAFC
Bombino (lower body) is in the starting XI for Saturday's game against Los Angeles FC.
Analysis: Bombino rejoined the squad for the week 11 match after being sidelined since April 12 due to the injury. The full-back, who has featured on both flanks this year, achieved his first direct contribution of the season with his goal against Minnesota United the last time he played. However, he should be more reliable in defensive duties against most opposition. His return to the lineup will push Ian Pilcher to a substitute role.
