Pedro Santos - Makes four interceptions in drawSantos made a clearance and four interceptions in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Red Bulls.

ImpactSantos returned to the starting lineup Sunday for the first time in about a month after recovering from a hamstring injury he suffered in late August. He should be fully fit once league play resumes after the upcoming international break.

Cucho Hernandez - Takes seven shots in drawHernandz took seven shots (one on target) and created two chances in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Timbers.

ImpactHernandez will regret his lack of clinical finishing as his side was pegged back in stoppage time for a draw on Sunday. His 76 shots since debuting for Columbus back in July lead MLS by a distance (second place Julian Carranza has taken just 53). But only 26 have been on target (34.2 percent), which is the second-worst percentage among the top-10 shooters in the league in that span. Of course he does have nine goals as well (34.6 percent of his shots on target).

Eryk Williamson - Creates two chances in drawWilliamson made a clearance and created two chances in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Crew.

ImpactWilliamson has started five of the Timbers' last six MLS matches in midfield, and although he may be disappointed to have been left out of the U.S. National Team camp for the September window -- virtually ruling him out in contention for a World Cup roster spot -- it does give him a chance to fully focus on his club team for the final few matches of the regular season and playoffs.

Yimmi Chara - Takes shot in drawChara took a shot on target and created two chances in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Crew.

ImpactChara lined up at forward against Columbus on Sunday, but he's been shifted all over the pitch throughout this season as he's played on either wing, both defensive and attacking midfield and of course as a center forward a few times as well. He's tallied four goals and three assists this season, which is slightly down from his 2021 numbers (six and five, respectively) but he also hasn't added to either tally since June.

Aljaz Ivacic - Concedes goal to ColumbusIvacic made three saves but conceded a goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Crew.

ImpactIvacic was beaten by a Kevin Molino strike on Sunday, but his side was able to salvage a draw via a Santiago Moreno stoppage-time strike. Ivacic has only kept one clean sheet in his last 12 MLS games and things won't get any easier after the international break against LAFC, which have scored a Western Conference-high 64 goals in 32 matches this season.

Bill Tuiloma - Records assist against ColumbusTuiloma took a shot on target and assisted a goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Crew. He also made a block and three clearances in the match.

ImpactTuiloma teed up Santiago Moreno's dramatic stoppage-time equalizer on Sunday that has the Timbers looking a little more comfortable in fifth place of the Western Conference table with just two games remaining in the regular season for most teams. It was his second assist of the season from central defense.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2022•ROTOWIRE

Santiago Moreno - Scores goal against ColumbusMoreno scored a goal and created two chances in Sunday's 1-1 draw against the Crew. He also made three clearances and won one of two tackles in the match.

ImpactMoreno pulled a rabbit out of a hat with a sensational strike from distance to dramatically equalize Sunday's game in the 95th minute. It was his third goal involvement (two goals, one assist) in his last three games, and he's tallied a combined five shots and seven chances created from the right wing in that span.
