Liel Abada - Serviceable finish to JuneAbada logged two shots (two on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and three chances created during Charlotte FC's 1-0 loss Saturday at Houston.

ImpactAbada was Charlotte FC's only player to log multiple in several categories like shots on goal, accurate crosses and created chances. June was an excellent month for the attacking footballer, who logged two goals and one assist on 15 shots (eight on goal) and eight chances created across five appearances. With this month being Abada's best since joining Charlotte, the team is hoping his recent form will be a sign of what comes in coming months.

Carlos Sebastian Ferreira Vidal - Assist to crucial goalFerreira logged one assist with his two chances created during the Dynamo's win Saturday against Charlotte FC.

ImpactAfter being a hat-trick hero during his previous appearance, Ferreira was added back to the Dynamo's starting XI for their latest game. He made said decision look smart by logging an assist to the Dynamo's only goal Saturday. For now, Ferreira is serving as their primary striker instead of Sebastian Kowalczyk, who has been demoted to the Dynamo's bench. How long that will last is unknown, but Ferreira's recent run suggests he should be allowed at least another opportunity to maximize it.

Ibrahim Aliyu - Finally scores goalAliyu scored one goal with his three shots (one on goal) during the Dynamo's 1-0 win Saturday against Charlotte FC.

ImpactAfter eight games without a goal in MLS action, Aliyu got back on the scoresheet Saturday. By doing so, he has logged at least one goal every month since March and goes into July 2024 with five this year, which is two more than his three scored from 2023.

Ashley Westwood - Option for Miami matchWestwood has been cleared to play and will be an option for Wednesday's match against Inter Miami.

ImpactWestwood will continue his consistent run with Charlotte, starting all 20 matches played for the team. He's been averaging about 2.9 crosses per game while also collecting 27 clearances, 58 crosses, and 26 chances created while also scoring twice.

Amine Bassi - No assist on chances and cornersBassi created three chances and attempted two corners during the Dynamo's 1-0 win Saturday against Charlotte FC.

ImpactUnfortunately for Bassi, his streak of appearances with an assist ended at two. However, the attacking midfielder's streak was not without a valiant effort from him. He was the Dynamo's only player to log multiple chances created and corners Saturday.

Latif Blessing - Creates three chancesBlessing created three chances during Houston's 1-0 win Saturday against Charlotte FC.

ImpactBlessing is one of two players who created at least three chances for Houston on Saturday. It also marks the first time he has created multiple chances across 2024. They somewhat compensate for the recent conclusion of Blessing's goal-scoring form, whose output is so good and tempting that he may maintain a regular role for Houston even if Adalberto Carrasquilla returns from national duty.
