Scores off bench Yapi scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact Yapi responded to being left on the bench last time out with a goal in Wednesday's draw at San Jose. The forward came on for the final 27 minutes and struck shortly after San Jose went down to 10 men, when he gathered a cross, cut inside and finished at the near post.

Retains starting spot Saturday Yapi (undisclosed) has been included in Colorado's starting lineup to face Portland Timbers on Saturday.

Impact Yapi avoided severe consequences following his forced withdrawal from the midweek contest versus Minnesota, where he made his 15th league start of the season and found the back of the net. The forward will hope to stay active as an offensive threat, racking up shots and creative stats from the flank opposite to Georgi Minoungou.

Scores before forced exit Yapi scored a goal but left with an undisclosed physical issue in Wednesday's match against Minnesota United.

Impact Yapi was busy in offensive duties, even finding the net with a quality touch in first half stoppage time Wednesday. However, he felt a pain later in the match and left his place on the field to Georgi Minoungou. The goal represented Yapi's first MLS direct contribution since April, so the injury would be untimely if it turns out to be significant. The forward is questionable for the time being ahead of the final regular-season stretch.

Creates one chance Saturday Yapi recorded one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 loss against Columbus Crew.

Impact Yapi started Saturday's road contest, just his third start since the World Cup break. He managed one off-target shot and one chance created, but it was not nearly enough to break his now 14-match long streak without a goal contribution. He'll hope to break that long drought Wednesday at Austin FC.

Despite being 21 years old, Yapi already has significant experience in MLS, totaling 13 goals and six assists across 104 matches played (38 starts) since 2022. During the current campaign, he has scored three times and assisted twice in 626 minutes of play.

Impact Yapi wasn't forced to miss any game with the injury he sustained midweek in US Open Cup action, and he even made the starting lineup for the second straight contest in all competitions. He might now remain in contention with Georgi Minoungou for an attacking midfield spot. If given meaningful opportunities, Yapi will look to improve on his MLS season tallies of three goals and two assists over 10 matches played.
