Makes eight clearances vs. Atlanta Glesnes made a block, two interceptions and eight clearances in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Atlanta United. He also took a shot in the match.

Impact Glesnes defended well Saturday to keep his eighth clean sheet of the season. With two games left, the Union should lock up the top seed in the East soon.

Makes four tackles in draw Glesnes made four tackles (two won) while keeping a clean sheet during Sunday's scoreless draw with Columbus.

Impact Glesnes has made the fourth-most clearances of any player in MLS but his production has recently been restricted with one clean sheet in the last five matches. Coupled with a poor recent run in the attack (four goals scored in last five games), Glesnes could improve quite a bit from Sunday's game. Up next is a visit from D.C. United, which have scored the third-fewest goals in the league.

Logs four interceptions Glesnes had two blocks, four interceptions and one tackle in the 2-0 victory over the San Jose Earthquakes on Saturday.

Impact While his side was offensively dominant, it took defense from Glesnes to stop San Jose from scoring. The defender has had a quiet season so far, but he has managed to intercept seven balls in only three appearances. Hopefully he will be able to add a few more to that total in the next match against New York City.

Assist teammate in draw Glesnes had one assist, one shot (off target), one cross, two interceptions, three fouls and created one chance in the 1-1 draw with Minnesota United on Saturday.

Impact After Minnesota drew first blood, Glesnes found Cory Burke in the 35th minute to equalize. The defender does not usually bring much to the offensive end of the pitch, but he may have found a new facet to his game. We'll have to see in the next match against Montreal.

Extends contract with Philadelphia Glesnes has signed a three-year contract extension with the Union, the club announced Wednesday.

Impact Glesnes took a step up during his second season in Philadelphia, tallying four goals, two assists and 13 clean sheets in 36 MLS games this season, playing every single minute of the season at center back until he had to miss Sunday's Eastern Conference Final while in health and safety protocols. The 27-year-old has signed on until 2024 with this new deal.

Questionable against NYCFC Glesnes is on MLS's health and safety protocols list and is questionable for Sunday's Eastern Conference Final against New York City.

Impact Defenders Glesnes, Jack Elliott and Kai Wagner are all in health and safety protocols, along with eight other Union players ahead of Sunday's game. Philadelphia might be forced to dig deep into its roster if none are able to play.

Impact Glesnes scored a wonderful and powerful strike in the 123rd minute of Saturday's game, advancing the Union to the Eastern Conference semifinals just before a penalty shootout would have been necessary. His defensive performance against the Red Bulls shouldn't be overlooked either, and he will want to have a similar performance against either No. 3 Nashville or No. 6 Orlando City.
