Marky Delgado - Pair of assists in win Delgado assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 3-2 victory over San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact Delgado earned a primary and secondary assist during Sunday's win, as he moved back into central midfield. Delgado has been a perfect utility man for Galaxy, with starts all over the midfielder in his first season with the club. With two matches left Delgado has six goal contributions, putting up right around his most productive years with Toronto.

Gaston Brugman - Nets third goal Brugman scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 3-2 win versus San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact Brugman has scored three times in just 12 appearances since joining from Parma, and is making the central midfield role his own heading into the MLS playoffs. Brugman has two more games to continue solidifying his role in the starting XI, though barring injury it's likely he will continue as a nailed-on starter.

Chicharito - Brace in win Chicharito scored two goals to go with three shots (two on goal) and three chances created in Sunday's 3-2 win versus San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact Chicharito moved to 17 goals for the second straight season with a brace during Saturday's win. The striker is one of the best in MLS and has three goals in his last two matches. Chicharito has two more matches to try and make his way to 20 goals for the first time in MLS, and on his current form it's not out of the question by any means.

Eriq Zavaleta - Called up for international break Zavaleta has been called up by the El Salvador national team and will miss Saturday's trip to San Jose, according to LA Galaxy.

Impact Zavaleta will miss Saturday's clash though he hasn't even been selected to the bench in the previous five matches so he won't change anything for the Galaxy first team against San Jose. Zavaleta has just four appearances so far in 2022.

Kelvin Leerdam - Called up to national team Leerdam has been called up the Suriname national team and will miss Saturday's trip to San Jose.

Impact Leerdam has been called up for national team duty and will miss Saturday's clash. The defender has made just 10 appearances in 2022 with five starts so his absence likely won't reshape the starting XI too much.

Martin Caceres - Called up to national team Caceres has been called up by Uruguay National Team for upcoming friendlies against Iran and Canada on Sept. 23 and 27.

Impact Caceres will miss Saturday's MLS clash against the Earthquakes while on international duty, with Derrick Williams and Sega Coulibaly likely to start in central defense for the match.

Douglas Costa - Sent off against Colorado Costa received a straight red card in the 62nd minute of Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids. He took two shots and created two chances in the match before going off.

Impact Costa was sent off after a violent foul on Michael Barrios on Saturday, his second red card of the season. He will be suspended for next weekend's Cali Classico, and possibly for longer if MLS deems it necessary.

Jonathan Bond - Concedes goal to Colorado Bond made five saves but conceded a goal in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids.

Impact Bond will be disappointed to have allowed Sam Nicholson to score in stoppage time Saturday and rob him of a first MLS clean sheet since July, but the big victory was important in that the Galaxy are now back in the playoff spots with a game in-hand over most of their Western Conference rivals. Next weekend he will face bottom-of-the-table San Jose in the Cali Classico.

Samuel Grandsir - Records assist in win Grandsir took a shot on target and assisted a goal in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids. He also made two interceptions and won one of two tackles in the match.

Impact Grandsir started on the left wing Saturday and he set up Gaston Brugman's opening goal against Colorado. This was only his fourth start in the Galaxy's last 12 games, so he is likely to return to the bench next time out.

Julian Araujo - Records assist in win Araujo took a shot and assisted a goal in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids. He also made four clearances in the match.

Impact Araujo set up Chicharito's goal against Colorado with a cross, his fourth assist of the campaign. He has now tied his 2021 mark of 33 chances created from right-back despite having three games remaining in the regular season.

Martin Caceres - Records assist in win Caceres assisted a goal and won one of two tackles in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids. He also made a block and two clearances in the match.

Impact Caceres once again started in central defense on Saturday and he set up a Raheem Edwards goal against Colorado, although Caceres' pass didn't have much to do with the eventual strike. It is unclear whether manager Greg Vanney views Caceres as a starter over Sega Coulibaly or Derrick Williams at the moment, but there's only three games left in the regular season to find out.

Riqui Puig - Records assist in win Puig took two shots (one on target) and assisted a goal in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids. He also made two interceptions in the match.

Impact Puig's passing was once again excellent Sunday, as he not only assisted a Gaston Brugman goal but he also created two more chances and provided two secondary assists against Colorado as well. He's averaging 2.1 chances created per 90 minutes from midfield across his seven MLS appearances.

Impact Chicharito netted his 15th goal of the season in style on Saturday with a classy back-heel flick. He's two goals shy of his mark of 17 from last season with three games to go in this campaign against San Jose, RSL and Houston.

Raheem Edwards - Scores goal against Colorado Edwards scored a goal and made an interception in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids.

Impact Edwards' first MLS goal since 2019 was a doozy, as he bypassed almost the entire opposing team with a slaloming run and a few shot fakes in the box before he eventually slotted home. He's been rotating with Chase Gasper for the starting left-back spot ever since the latter arrived in LA in the Spring, so it's unlikely we see more of this type of magic from him consistently.

Gaston Brugman - Scores brace against Colorado Brugman scored two goals and created two chances in Saturday's 4-1 victory against the Rapids.

Impact Brugman scored his first MLS goals on Saturday in what was his 11th appearance since joining the Galaxy in the summer. He has started all 11 of those games in midfield, and he's taken 11 shots (three on target) and created 11 chances in that span.
