Luciano Acosta - Bags game-winning goalAcosta scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 1-0 win against Orlando City SC.

ImpactAcosta took advantage of a lobbed pass from DeAndre Yedlin to charge through on goal, and he fired an unstoppable shot past Pedro Gallese from close range after leaving a few defenders behind. Acosta is enjoying an excellent start to the 2024 season with five goals and five assists across his 11 outings (10 starts).

Duncan McGuire - Limited impact in loss SaturdayMcGuire generated one shot (zero on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 loss to FC Cincinnati.

ImpactMcGuire was expected to lead Orlando's attacking line in this game, but he barely received any passes with advantage and only mustered one shot off target throughout the match. McGuire will aim to bounce back in the team's next games, though it's worth noting he's alternated goalscoring and non-goalscoring appearances across his last four contests.

Pedro Gallese - Beaten once in loss SaturdayGallese had two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss versus FC Cincinnati.

ImpactGallese was beaten less than 20 seconds into the game, as Orlando's defensive line was left in shambles by Luciano Acosta, who fired an unstoppable shot from close range. Even though Gallese was solid the rest of the way, he was charged with the defeat. The Peru international will aim to bounce back against Philadelphia on Saturday.

Matt Miazga - Active on both ends SaturdayMiazga recorded two shots (one on goal) in Saturday's 1-0 victory against Orlando City SC. He also added three clearances and one tackle en route to keeping a clean sheet.

ImpactMiazga was solid defensively and also posed a threat in the final third via set-piece situations. Even though Miazga has taken multiple shots in each of his last three appearances, it's worth noting most of his value should continue to be tied to what he can do on the defensive end of the field. He has racked up three or more clearances in each of his 10 appearances this season.

DeAndre Yedlin - Sets up game-winning goalYedlin assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 win against Orlando City SC. He was subbed off due to injury in the 54th minute.

ImpactA long ball from Yedlin set up Luciano Acosta, but the star playmaker did most of the heavy lifting to score -- he controlled inside the box and left a few defenders stranded before finding the back of the net. This was Yedlin's third assist of the season, and all three have come across his last six appearances.

Roman Celentano - Keeps clean sheet SaturdayCelentano made two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 1-0 win versus Orlando City SC.

ImpactCelentano didn't have to work hard to secure a clean sheet in his return to action, as Orlando City barely posed a threat in the final meters. If healthy, Celentano should continue between the posts for Cincinnati.
