Zac MacMath - Pair of saves in win MacMath had two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 3-1 win against San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact MacMath faced just three shots and stopped two of them to come away with the win. The goalkeeper has been off to a tough start in 2023, making 24 saves in seven matches while conceding just under two goals per match. It's been particularly disappointing as he comes off a strong 2022, where he allowed 47 goals in 35 starts. MacMath is also still looking for his first clean sheet of 2023.
