Nadiem Amiri - Attempts four shots Amiri generated four shots (zero on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 defeat versus RB Leipzig.

Impact Mainz's first three games of the 2025-26 Bundesliga have seen Amiri gradually elevate his number of shots. But unlike the previous two games, he logged zero shots on goal Saturday. Offensively, Amiri lacked quality everywhere (as his four inaccurate crosses can also attest), and he will look to bounce back with Mainz's two remaining games in September.

Robin Zentner - Concedes one goal again Zentner recorded two saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss to RB Leipzig.

Impact Lee was forced off in the 50th minute of Saturday's 2-0 victory against the United States in a friendly due to a minor hamstring injury in his right leg. The midfielder is a doubt for Tuesday's clash against Mexico and will likely be assessed upon his return to Mainz to determine if he will miss any time. That said, if the injury proves to be serious, his absence will force a change in the frontline with Arnaud Nordin as a possible replacement.

Nelson Weiper - New contract with Mainz Weiper has signed a new contract with Mainz, according to his club.

Impact Weiper was out of contract this offseason but has rekindled his link with Mainz, signing a new contract until June 2029. This is a good move for both sides, as the forward is continuing to break into the squad while the club keeps a young and talented recruit around. He only started in seven of his 23 appearances last season while bagging three goals, although that will likely grow this campaign.

Robin Zentner - Allows only goal Zentner had one save and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against 1. FC Koln.

Impact Zentner's season got off to a disappointing start as he allowed a goal one just two shots faced on opening day. The midfielder and defensive in front of him still offer some solid play and limit the shots he faces, but this is a match he would have wanted a clean sheet from. Zentner won't have an easier match next time out against Wolfsburg as he tries to bounce back.

AUGUST 25, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Lee Jae-sung - Three shots despite loss Lee Jae-Sung generated three shots (zero on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 loss to 1. FC Koln.

Impact Lee got the start in attacking midfield, as expected and was the most aggressive part of the first team for large parts of the match. The forward has plenty of upside, especially if Mainz can find the form that earned them a spot in European competition last season. Lee will hope to build on this volume, especially with injuries likely making him a focal point of the attack early in the season.
