Concedes twice against Revs Blake conceded two goals and made two saves during Tuesday's playoff loss against New England.

Impact Blake missed the final two games of the regular season due to a hand fracture, but he took advantage of the international break to recover and start here. He didn't have the expected results, though, and the Union have been eliminated from the playoffs as a result. The goalkeeper ends a stellar 2020 MLS season with 81 saves, nine clean sheets and just 23 goals conceded across 25 starts.

Records eighth clean sheet Blake made one save and recorded one clean sheet in the 5-0 victory over Toronto FC on Saturday.

Impact Blake was barely tested if at all during the win Saturday. The tremendous keeper only saw one chance throughout the entire match and made it easy work. Blake already plays for a strong all-around club and their defense made light work for him. Blake does not see many shots and it limits his upside, but he is surely one of the most consistent keepers in the league.

Makes seven saves in win Blake made seven saves and allowed one goal during Monday's 2-1 win over the Revolution.

Impact Blake was outstanding in this one as he notched his second-best save total of the season and propelled his side to a one-goal win. He appeared to be headed for a clean sheet but conceded a goal in the 80th minute to tarnish what could have been an even better outing. Blake will look to build on this effort Saturday against Toronto FC.
