Things have gone from bad to worse for D.C. United on Saturday night.

The Belgian was forced off around the hour-mark with what appeared to be a non-contact injury.

Bentenke has been a force this MLS season, and currently leads the league scoring charts with 13 goals (tied with Cristian Arango).

Additionally, no other D.C. United player has scored more than one goal this season.

The club will hope it’s nothing too serious as they hope to turn their season around.

If they fail to beat Toronto, D.C. United will be seven games without a win.
