Yohei Takaoka - Saved by attack Takaoka made one save and allowed three goals in Saturday's 4-3 victory versus St. Louis City SC.

Impact Takaoka faced just four shots during Saturday's clash and conceded three of them, a tough day for the goalkeeper. Thankfully his attack, and especially Brian White, came up clutch and kept him from the loss as well. Takaoka has started hot in each of his first two MLS seasons, but has cooled off quickly both times.

Luis Martins - Assists late winner Luis Martins assisted once to go with two crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 4-3 win versus St. Louis City SC.

Impact Martins set up Fafa Picault for the winning goal during second half stoppage time in Saturday's win. The midfielder didn't get involved for large portions of the match but he stepped into his own in the closing stages and showed some impressive speed even after playing the full 90. Martins should continue to see starting chances, though he could be rotated mid-week.

Ryan Raposo - Assists Saturday Raposo assisted once to go with five crosses (two accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 4-3 win versus St. Louis City SC.

Impact Raposo provided an assist early in the second half before coming off at the hour mark. The midfielder was excellent, creating a plethora of chances and causing issues down the wing. Raposo's only knock has been rotation, as he's often subbed off or left out of the starting XI. Still when on the pitch Raposo has been elite with two goals and four assists in just 890 minutes.

Fafa Picault - Nets late Picault scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 4-3 victory over St. Louis City SC.

Impact Picault scored in second half stoppage time, a goal that proved to be the game winner after St. Louis scored one moments after. Picault didn't shine as brightly as hat trick hero Brian White, but he still looked good in the attack adding a new dimension for the final 30 minutes. Still it's hard to trust Picault if he's not included in the starting XI.

Brian White - Nets hat trick White scored three goals to go with three shots (three on goal) in Saturday's 4-3 victory over St. Louis City SC.

Impact White scored a brilliant hat trick during Saturday's win to carry Vancouver past a tough St. Louis side. The forward showed why he's remained the leading man in a Vancouver attack that has fallen out of form as he piled on the goals, scoring two early in the second half to snatch the lead back. White remains an elite option moving forward.
