LAFC goalkeeper Maxime Crepeau broke his leg during the MLS Cup final, forcing him to miss the World Cup. He is upbeat as he nears a return to play.
LAFC began its MLS Cup title defense with a blistering start, scoring three first-half goals before holding on for a win over Portland at BMO Stadium.Watching the tournament on TV with his leg in a cast was the low point, Dos Santos said.
Crepeau speaks from experience. His only other serious injury came three years ago when the base of his left thumb detached, requiring doctors to insert three wires to repair the damage. Crepeau was out more than eight months and spent so many hours in the gym while his thumb healed that he came back in the best shape of his life.
The fact he hasn’t played or traveled with the team this season hasn’t all been bad because it allowed him to spend time with family, especially his and wife Cristina’s second child, who was born in May.
