Impact Matarrita collected a clearance from Columbus on a corner kick and unleashed a shot from outside the box to level the game at 1-1 in first half stoppage time. He was also very active defensively as he won three of four tackles, made one interception and made one clearance as Columbus continued to push for more. The goal was Matarrita's first of the season to go along with three assists in 14 starts. He was called up to the Costa Rican National Team for the upcoming World Cup qualifiers, which take place on Sept. 2, 5 and 8, so he may return in time for the club's match against Toronto on Sept. 11.
