Brazilian fullback Auro described as questionable for Toronto FC game

TORONTO — Brazilian fullback Auro is questionable for Toronto's FC's home game Saturday against the visiting Chicago Fire.

Coach Greg Vanney said Auro was feeling soreness in his semitendinosus muscle, located in the high hamstring area.

"We'll see he reacts (Friday) and where he's at," said Vanney, who called the injury minor.

Auro, 23, has started all three league games this season, twice at fullback and once at wingback on the right side.

Toronto (3-0-0) is off to its best-ever start to an MLS season. Chicago (1-2-1) is coming off a 1-0 win over the New York Red Bulls.
