Makes nine clearances in draw Callens made nine clearances, two interceptions and one block while helping his side to keep a clean sheet during Wednesday's scoreless draw against Chicago.
Impact Callens had a huge performance here, leading all players with a season-high nine clearances. He was instrumental for his side to withstand pressure during the latter stages of the game, when they had to play with one man down after Keaton Parks was sent off. With 19 clearances and two clean sheets over his last four starts, the centre back will try to remain productive during Saturday's visit to Toronto.

Keeps clean sheet in win Callens kept a clean sheet with one tackle won and put two shots off target during Wednesday's 1-0 win over Montreal.
Impact Callens has started each of the last two matches since returning from the Copa America and conceded two goals so far. His represent should help things remain steady even without Sean Johnson in goal for a little longer while he's at the Gold Cup, so keep an eye out on how things go from here. Up next is a visit form Orlando City, which have scored 21 goals in 13 matches this season, which is tied for second-best in the Eastern Conference.

Questionable against Columbus Callens (thigh) is questionable for Saturday's match against Columbus.

Suffers thigh injury Saturday Callens suffered a thigh injury early in Saturday's match against Toronto FC, leaving in the 13th minute, according to Alonso El Inca of DirecTV Peru.
Impact Callens' absence is a major blow to the NYC FC back line, one that got even worse when Maxime Chanot suffered his own muscular injury late in Saturday's match. Sebastian Ibeagha came on for Callens and could start alongside James Sands in central defense in the short term.
