Back from suspension
Makhanya has served his suspension and will return to face New York Red Bulls on July 22 following the World Cup break.
Analysis: Makhanya had been forced to sit out after accumulating five yellow cards, missing the Inter Miami fixture in the process. The center-back had been on a run of 11 consecutive starts prior to the ban, contributing 46 clearances, 23 tackles and 14 interceptions across that span, and is expected to slot straight back into the defensive lineup against the Red Bulls once MLS action resumes after the tournament.
Serving another suspension
Makhanya is set to serve a one match suspension and will miss the clash with Inter Miami on Saturday.
Analysis: Makhanya will serve his second suspension of the season, this time for yellow card accumulation. He's recorded 11 straight starts in a row, collecting 46 clearances with 23 tackles and 14 interceptions in that span. Due to this suspension, he will not play until after the World Cup break.
