No work in Saturday's win Willis had no saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 win against New York City FC.

Impact New York City FC was wildly inaccurate in front of goal Saturday, to the point that Willis didn't have to make a single save to register his sixth clean sheet of the season. The goalkeeper has four shutouts over his last six appearances, and he'll aim to keep that run alive when facing Inter Miami on June 29.

Impact Willis was beaten twice, once in each half. The pair of goals ended his two game stretch where he didn't allow a goal, and it also marked the first time he's allowed more than one goal since March. Next, he'll face off against the NY Red Bulls, a team with 24 goals in 16 games.

JUNE 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Clean sheet against Cincinnati Willis recorded six saves and allowed zero goals in Wednesday's 2-0 win versus FC Cincinnati.

Impact Willis was stout in net once again, making a solid six saves while earning a clean sheet for his club. His six saves were a new season-high, having also registered back-to-back clean sheets to give him four on the season. He will look to repeat this performance when facing New England on Saturday.

Keeps clean sheet in draw Willis made two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 0-0 draw versus CF Montreal.

Impact Willis logged his third clean sheet in the season to help Nashville earn one point on the road. The goalkeeper made two or more saves in nine of his 11 appearances (10 starts). He will now look to keep the momentum at Cincinnati on Wednesday.

Montreal's Sirois, Nashville's Willis stellar in scoreless draw

CF Montreal goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois finished with four saves and Joe Willis stopped both shots he faced for Nashville SC in a scoreless draw

Can't deny Atlanta in draw Willis recorded no saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Atlanta United.

Impact Willis didn't have a lot of work, and the fact that he didn't make a single save was perhaps the best example of that, but he couldn't stop Bartosz Slisz's goal that ended up being the equalizer in the second half. Willis has just one clean sheet over his last six appearances, but at least he's found a way to limit the damage since he hasn't conceded more than one goal in any of those six contests.

MAY 18, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Two saves in clean sheet Willis kept a clean sheet while making two saves during Wednesday's 2-0 win over Toronto.

Impact Willis helped Nashville claim all three points by shutting out Toronto on Wednesday. The keeper has allowed two goals while making eight saves over his last three starts with the clean sheet being his first since February.

MAY 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes one in loss Willis made two saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-0 loss against Charlotte.

Impact Willis had another solid outing between the posts, but couldn't do much to stop Patrick Agyemang's shot that went into the far post for the goal that gave the opposition the win in the 52nd minute. The goalkeeper makes a decent numbers of saves when he starts, but the lack of clean sheets -his last one came during the season opener - clearly hurts the fantasy value he provides.

MAY 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Records four saves Willis logged four saves despite conceding one goal during Nashville SC's 4-1 win Saturday against CF Montreal.

Impact For the first time since Nashville SC's 2024 opener, Willis saved more than three shots in an MLS game. Separately, he has logged multiple saves and conceded one goal or less once across his first six starts this year. At least for the time being, Willis' overall consistency is expected to make him a reliable option going into the remainder of May.

MAY 5, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes three saves in draw Willis recorded three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against San Jose Earthquakes.

Impact There wasn't much Willis could've done to avoid Skahan's goal, as he was faced one-on-one with the midfielder. Willis will aim to secure a clean sheet when Nashville takes on Montreal on Saturday.

MAY 2, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes goal as substitute Willis logged no saves but conceded one goal during Nashville SC's 3-1 loss Saturday at Miami.

Impact After fellow Nashville goalkeeper Elliot Panicco conceded two goals, Willis subbed in at halftime. His lone save attempt was a Lionel Messi penalty kick given after Josh Bauer fouled Leonardo Afonso. The Argentinian scored, making it four consecutive appearances in which Willis has conceded a goal. But with Panicco not doing much better, Nashville's starting goalkeeper spot is still up for grabs.

APRIL 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Completes suspension Willis has completed his one-game suspension and will be available to face Philadelphia on Saturday.

Impact Willis was sent off in the 5-0 drubbing by LAFC on March 23, but the game was "only" 3-0 when he departed the contest. Willis should return to his starting role to face the Union on Saturday, meaning Elliot Panicco will probably head back to the bench.

APRIL 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Sent off Saturday Willis recorded two saves and conceded three times in Saturday's 5-0 loss to LAFC before being sent off due to a straight red card in the 62nd minute.

Impact Willis' already horrible day was topped off with a cherry, as after letting up three goals in the first 50 minutes, he would later be handed a one-match ban after receiving a red card due to stopping the ball with his hand well outside of the penalty area. This will leave the goalie suspended for the club's next match, not being an option for their contest against Columbus on Sunday. He was replaced by Elliot Panicco, who will most likely get the star in Wills' place while he is out, with the keeper next available for the team against Philadelphia on April 6.

MARCH 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes once in win Willis made three saves and conceded once in Saturday's 2-1 win over Charlotte.

Impact Willis was surprisingly left on the bench for the previous game against LA Galaxy, but he was back in the starting XI against Charlotte. He played his part in the victory, making a good save to keep out a Jere Uronen free-kick and the goal means he has conceded twice in his three games. He will hope that his relegation to the bench was a one-off and that he keeps his place for the visit to Los Angeles on Saturday.

MARCH 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Makes two saves against Colorado Willis made two saves and conceded one goal during Saturday's 1-1 draw against Colorado.

Impact Willis couldn't do much when teammate Shaq Moore sent the ball into his own net in the 47th minute but then kept his team in contention with a pair of important interventions. Opponents had a very hard time when trying to score against him last season and his nice start of campaign indicates Willis will probably remain one of MLS' most reliable goalkeepers. Up next for him is Mar. 10 home clash against LA Galaxy.

Nashville, Red Bulls kick off season with scoreless draw Nashville’s Joe Willis and Carlos Coronel of the New York Red Bulls both opened the season with clean sheets in a scoreless season opener

FEBRUARY 26, 2024 • SANDIEGOUNIONTRIBUNE.COM

Starts year with clean sheet Willis kept a clean sheet while making five saves during Sunday's 0-0 draw with New York Red Bulls.

Impact Willis opened the season with a point as he shut out the Red Bulls during Sunday's debut. The keeper kept 10 clean sheets a year ago and allowed less than a goal a match while making 107 saves.

FEBRUARY 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Gives up only 33 goals Willis gave up 33 goals and recorded 10 clean sheets across 34 starts during the 2023 MLS season.

Impact Willis logged at least 33 starts for the third season in a row, and even though he has benched in favor of Elliot Panicco midway through the campaign and after the Leagues Cup run, Willis closed the campaign in his regular role between the posts. Willis has averaged fewer than 1.0 goal per game while recording double-digit clean sheets in three of his last four campaigns.

DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Concedes season-ending goal Willis recorded four saves and allowed one goal in Tuesday's 1-0 loss against Orlando City SC.

Impact Willis played well, but Nashville SC being unable to score meant the team's 2023 season is done. He finished this year with 107 saves, 33 goals conceded, 13 clearances and 10 clean sheets. The 33 goals is his lowest since 2020, when he logged eight fewer appearances. Willis' 107 saves are his new career-best across a single season, which was definitely a good one to say the least.

NOVEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Makes four saves in loss Willis made four saves and conceded one goal during Monday's 1-0 loss against Orlando.

Impact Willis made a great job between the posts during the first half but then came Wilder Cartagena to beat him with a spectacular long-range finish just before halftime and score what ended up being a game-winner for the opposition. The goalkeeper, who kept three clean sheets over his last six regular season starts, will need to be at his best to keep his team alive in the series on Nov. 7 when Nashville hosts Game 2.
