WASHINGTON — D.C. United midfielder Clyde Simms and forward Thabiso Khumalo had surgery and both are expected to be sidelined for weeks.

Simms had sports hernia surgery on his right side in Germany and could miss up to three weeks.

Khumalo had an operation in Virginia to repair his broken right wrist and is expected to be sidelined four to six weeks.

He was hurt in injury time of D.C. United’s 2-1 victory over Rochester in the U.S. Open Cup semifinals Tuesday night. Khumalo scored the winning goal in the 82nd minute.
