Assists equalizer Saturday
Anello assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Anello set up Milan Iloski's equalizer in the 70th minute, a goal which earned just the seventh point of the season for Philadelphia. It was one of two chances he created in the match and it marked his first assist of the campaign. He also recorded two crosses in his 45 minutes off the bench.
Available as substitute Saturday
Anello (hamstring) is on the bench Saturday at Columbus Crew.
Analysis: Anello didn't play a huge role prior to his six-week injury absence, but he notched his first goal of the season during his most recent MLS outing, so he'll aim to regain momentum now that he's fit. The attacker will initially serve as a bench asset and might replace either Danley Jean Jacques or Milan Iloski at some point.
Trains Monday
Anello (hamstring) is back in training and is "looking good," according to manager Bradley Carnell, per Joe Tansey of Bleacher Report.
Analysis: Anello has been working back from a hamstring injury recently and is now fully training on Monday, appearing to be nearing a return. This is good news for the midfielder, as he last saw the field four games ago. He started in two of his four appearances, so the club awaits his return.
