Bryan Acosta - Sends in five crosses in drawAcosta had two shots on goal, created one chance, sent in five crosses (one accurate), won one tackle and was shown a yellow card during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Houston.

ImpactAcosta made his second consecutive start and was once again a threat on the offensive end, not only because of his role on set pieces but also finishing plays himself. When he's at his best, his fantasy outputs are much different from the ones that most holding midfielders have due to great offensive numbers even without appearing on the scoresheet. Up next for Acosta is Aug. 29 visit to Austin.

Jesus Ferreira - Provides assist in drawFerreira made an assist, had two shots (one on target), created two chances and suffered two fouls during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Houston.

ImpactFerreira wasn't having a great display until the 56th minute, when he was at the right place to pick up the ball after a bad clearance from the opposing goalkeeper and then assisted Ricardo Pepi for the goal that momentarily gave Dallas a 2-1 lead. This was the fourth assist of the season for the youngster and he'll try to keep it up during Aug. 29 visit to Austin.

Ricardo Pepi - Scores in draw against HoustonPepi scored a goal off two shots (one on target), created two chances and made three tackles (one won) and two clearances during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Houston.

ImpactPepi was coming off a five-game scoring drought, but this time he could finally find the back of the net. In the 56th minute, after a huge giveaway by goalkeeper Marko Maric, the forward didn't have much trouble to send the ball home after Jesus Ferreira picked up the ball and found him unmarked inside the box. Pepi has now nine goals over 20 appearances (15 starts) this season and will try to add to his tally during Aug. 29 visit to Austin.

Nkosi Tafari - Scores in draw against HoustonBurgess scored a goal off his lone shot and made one tackle (won), seven clearances, four interceptions and one block during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Houston.

ImpactBurgess had another great performance at the heart of the defense, but this time his biggest contribution came on the offensive end. In the 54th minute, he was at the right place to send the ball home and even the score at one goal apiece after the opposing defense could only partially clear the ball on a corner-kick play. This was the first goal of the season for the centre back and he'll try to keep it up during Aug. 29 visit to Austin.

Adam Lundqvist - Sends in 11 crosses in drawLundqvist created two chances, sent in 11 crosses (two accurate), made four tackles (one won) and one interception and suffered four fouls during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Dallas...

ImpactLundqvist made his second consecutive start and once again thrived on the offensive end, leading all players with a whopping 11 crosses, while also providing some nice value on defense. It looks like the left back is regaining his best form after being relegated to the bench last month and he'll try to remain productive during next Saturday's home match against Minnesota.

Marko Maric - Concedes two in drawMaric made four saves and conceded two goals during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Dallas.

ImpactMaric couldn't do much to prevent the first goal scored by the opposition, but committed a huge mistake in the second as his awful clearance led to an easy goal scored by Ricardo Pepi. The goalkeeper is going through a rough stretch, with 12 goals conceded over the last five starts. He'll try to bounce back during next Saturday's home match against Minnesota.

Zarek Valentin - Provides assist in drawValentin made an assist and created two chances during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Dallas.

ImpactValentin was having a very quiet performance until the 72nd minute, when he went up the field and assisted Matias Vera for the goal that sealed the 2-2 draw. This was the first appearance on the scoresheet of the season for the right back, who's known mainly for what he can provide on the defensive end. Up next for Valentin is Saturday's home match against Minnesota.
