Cucho Hernandez - Secondary assist on match-winnerCucho recorded one shot (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Wednesday's 1-0 win over Philadelphia Union.
ImpactAfter leading his team to another trophy on Sunday in the Leagues Cup final -- a match where he scored two goals and recorded one assist -- Cucho did not start Wednesday's return to the MLS. He was subbed onto the pitch in the 71st minute and just four minutes later set up Max Arfsten who crossed the ball to Yaw Yeboah for the match-winning header. After getting some much-needed rest during the mid-week contest, Cucho will likely return to the starting XI Saturday versus NYCFC.
