Lucas Zelarrayan - Scores goal against Cincinnati Zelarayan scored a goal on five shots (three on goal) and created five chances in Friday's 3-2 win against Cincinnati.

Impact Zelarayan broke the deadlock with a precise free kick from outside the box that curled right into the top corner for a 1-0 lead in the 45th minute of the first half. He had numerous opportunities for more goals, but two of his shots were saved and one of them hit the crossbar. He also took six corners, sent in nine total crosses (five accurate) and created five chances, which ties his second personal best for chances created in a single game this season. Zelarayan now has seven goals and three assists (one secondary) through 21 appearances this season. Columbus will look to carry momentum into Saturday's game against Orlando.

Eloy Room - Concedes two in loss Room conceded two goals and made three saves during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Seattle.

Impact Room hasn't kept a clean sheet in six straight games, conceding 15 during that span. While he's usually one of the better goalkeepers in the league, Room hasn't had the benefit of a healthy defense and that's seemingly put him off his game as well. Up next is the derby against FC Cincinnati, which have scored the second-fewest goals in MLS.

Waylon Francis - Gets another start Francis put one shot off target during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Seattle.

Impact Francis has started each of the last three matches as Milton Valenzuela (hamstring) remains unavailable but he hasn't been able to produce much of anything. Amidst continued injury issues, Francis could get another start in Friday's match against FC Cincinnati.

Bradley Wright-Phillips - Scores off bench Wright-Phillips scored one goal from two shots (one on goal) in 25 minutes off the bench during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Seattle.

Impact Wright-Phillips needs to take on a bigger role in the team during the absence of Gyasi Zardes (hamstring) and he's doing just that with one start and one goal over his last two games. Heading into the next match against FC Cincinnati, it wouldn't be surprising to see Wright-Phillips restored to the lineup.

Lucas Zelarrayan - Creates six chances in loss Zelarayan created six chances from 11 crosses (five accurate) during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Seattle.

Impact Zelarayan has had a major problem getting dispossessed on dribbles, but is otherwise important enough to his team that his production is usually exceptional in a given game. One would hope that after hitting double-digit crosses for the first time since the beginning of July that Zelarayan has found his stride heading into Friday's match against FC Cincinnati.

AUGUST 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Miguel Berry - Starts in loss Berry logged 65 minutes in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Seattle.

Impact Berry was handed his second start of the season but couldn't get much going before Bradley Wright-Philips replaced him and scored. As a result, it seems like Wright-Philips has a better shot of anyone else at starting until Gyasi Zardes (hamstring) is able to play.
