Takes opportunity in stride Hopkins scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Orlando City SC.

Impact Tai Baribo (thigh) did not play Saturday, so that meant D.C. United's primary striker was Hopkins, and he took advantage of the opportunity. By attempting his lone shot from outside Orlando's penalty box, he logged an excellent goal, ending what has been just as a superb week for him. For two appearances, Hopkins scored during both games.

Impact Hopkins worked himself into a starting role this season and maintained that into the season finale, starting in 11 of his 17 appearances this campaign.

Late scratch against Union Hopkins was removed from the starting lineup for Saturday's game versus Philadelphia Union.

Impact Hopkins will be forced to miss a league match for the first time since June, with Jared Stroud taking his place in midfield. The severity of the youngster's potential injury is still unknown, so he'll be questionable for future contests. This could be a relevant blow given that he recently scored his first three goals of the season over five successive starts.
