Julian Gressel - Registers four crosses Gressel recorded one shot (zero on goal) and four crosses (zero accurate) in Saturday's 4-2 victory over CF Montreal.

Impact Gressel didn't have a great match nor a poor one, contributing four crosses, one shot and three tackles in the win. The German was back in the starting squad for the Montreal match after only appearing as a substitute last game, but somehow was less productive in his 85 minutes of play Saturday than he was in his 23 minutes last week. Since the middle of July his production has taken a major hit, not registering a single goal contribution in his last seven matches despite starting in five of those games.

Rossi has only played four matches for the Crew but has made an impact already, notching a goal and an assist in his short time at the club. He has now started two games for Columbus and has contributed five shots, six chances created and six crosses in his four appearances.

Impact Yeboah bagged his assist after finding Cucho Hernandez in the 43rd minute for the second goal of the game. It was Yeboah's first goal contribution in two matches and his sixth on the season. The 26-year-old hasn't been anything special for Columbus as of lately, notching five starts in the past six games but only having two goal contributions in that period.

Cucho Hernandez - Nets hat trick against Montreal Cucho Hernandez scored three goals to go with six shots (three on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 4-2 win versus CF Montreal.

Impact Hernandez was brilliant in Saturday's contest, notching two goals in the first half while converting on a penalty in the second half to bag his hat trick. These were his first goals in three matches and brought his tally on the season to nine. The Columbian has been a freak for Columbus in the attack this year, averaging five and a half shots per game while also having 15 goal contributions.

Patrick Schulte - Makes four saves in win Schulte recorded four saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 4-2 victory versus CF Montreal. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 86th minute.

Impact Schulte had an okay day in net, allowing two goals while also making four saves in the win. The 22-year-old has been decent for Columbus this season, recording six clean sheets and 78 saves in his 24 starts this season. He will have a much tougher opponent in his next match when he takes on Orlando City in a true six point clash atop of the Eastern Conference table.

Impact Matan recorded eight crosses (three accurate) and six corners in Wednesday's loss, his most in either category since March 25 versus Atlanta United. He also played the full 90 minutes for the first time since July 8 and the eighth time this season, a promising side that he will be a crucial part of the attack during the final stretch of the regular season.

Julian Gressel - Eight crosses off bench Gressel recorded one shot (one on goal), eight crosses (one accurate) and six corners in Wednesday's 2-0 loss against Houston Dynamo.

Impact Hernandez took five shots (one on target) Saturday, bringing him up to 23 total in his last three matches combined. He failed to score or assist a goal for his second consecutive start though, just the second time this season he has gone without a goal contribution for two straight matches.

He should be able to return to the lineup to play center back alongside Steven Moreira and Rudy Camacho on Saturday.
