GAME LOG

Rosales had two shots (one on goal), nine crosses (two accurate) and six corners in Saturday's 2-1 win against San Jose Earthquakes.

Greatly active against Sounders
Rosales logged four shots (zero on goal), 11 crosses (two accurate) and five corners during Minnesota United's 3-2 loss Saturday against the Sounders.
Impact
Despite continuing to be goalless across 2024, Rosales tried valiantly at getting a goal, tying his season high in shots Saturday. Rosales also attempted more than 10 crosses, the sixth time he has surpassed that tally this year. Corners should now be considered a staple of his game, considering he has attempted at least three during every appearance since July.

Signs new contract
Rosales has agreed to a new contract with Minnesota, the club announced.
Impact
Rosales is not leaving Minnesota anytime soon, as the fullback has inked a new contract to remain with the club until 2028. He has been a regular starter this season, getting the start in 19 of his 21 appearances while notching seven assists on 41 chances created to go along with 33 clearances, 44 interceptions, 50 tackles and 132 crosses. He is likely to remain in this role after inking the extension, probably staying in that spot for a couple more years as well.

Impact
Rosales delivered his second assist in the last three games, as he sent a cross that was headed in by Bongokuhle Hlongwane in the 75th minute. This marked the 13th time in 21 appearances on the season that Rosales sent more than five crosses in a match, and it also marked the seventh time he had at least three accurate crosses. After playing as a sub in the last game, this was the first time in three outings that Rosales played a full 90 minutes.

ROTOWIRE
Quickly in great form
Rosales logged one assist with his six crosses (two accurate) and four corners during Minnesota United's draw Saturday at Houston.
Impact
After beginning his July badly with a missed penalty, Rosales is back in form and rather quickly. He logged at least three accurate crosses and multiple chances created Sunday against the Galaxy. While unable to achieve both Saturday, Rosales excelled nonetheless, particularly from the left flank. One of Rosales' two accurate crosses found its way to Robin Lod, who scored the lone goal Minnesota United recorded at Houston.

ROTOWIRE
Misses penalty in loss
Rosales had one shot (one on goal), 12 crosses (five accurate) and seven corners in Wednesday's 3-1 loss against Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Impact
Rosales' solid playmaking performance was spoiled due to a deficient spot kick stopped by the goalkeeper in the first half of the match. The wing-back added a season-high 12 crosses to his total of 99 (34 accurate) in 17 appearances. He could have plenty of chances to bounce back, especially if he continues to take all types of set pieces in upcoming fixtures.

ROTOWIRE
Sends 10 crosses
Rosales had two shots (one on goal), 10 crosses (two accurate) and six corners in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Austin FC.
Impact
Rosales sent at least 10 crosses in a match for the third time this season, however he has a total of just seven accurate crosses in those outings. He also fired two shots with one on target for a second consecutive game and registered at least two chances created for a fourth straight outing. Finally, Rosales completed a well-rounded outing with a successful tackle and three interceptions.

Assist immediately after suspension
Rosales logged one assist with six crosses (three accurate), seven corners and six chances created during Minnesota United's 5-3 loss Wednesday at Dallas.
Impact
One game after serving his suspension, Rosales logged the assist to a goal scored by Bongokuhle Hlongwane. The wing back will look to replicate his form from just a bit before his suspension, a span of appearances that saw him record one assist across four straight games.

ROTOWIRE
Suspension over
Rosales completed his one-game suspension and is eligible to face Dallas on Wednesday.
Impact
Rosales missed the loss to the Sounders due to a yellow-card accumulation, and he's set to return from a two-game absence, as he also missed the draw against FC Dallas on June 9 due to international duty. Rosales has been a steady presence on the left side of Minnesota's defense and should return to the starting lineup right away in Wednesday's contest.

Impact
Rosales will miss the match against FC Dallas since he's on international duty with Honduras, meaning his yellow-card suspension will happen in the match against Seattle on June 15. This means the earliest he'll be eligible to return will be against FC Dallas on June 19, according to Andy Greder of the Pioneer Press.

Impact
One of Rosales' five corners was headed in by Kervin Arriaga. The former has been rolling as of late, logging an assist during each of his last three appearances. By doing so, Rosales has recorded more assists in the span than in any year from 2021 to 2023.

Sets up goal against Atlanta United
Rosales assisted once to go with nine crosses (two accurate) and nine corners in Saturday's 2-1 win versus Atlanta United.
Impact

ROTOWIRE
Logs assist versus SKC
Rosales made an assist, created two chances, sent in four crosses (two accurate) and drew four fouls during Saturday's 2-1 win over Sporting Kansas City.
Impact
Rosales was once again very active on the attacking end and this time he got involved on both Minnesota goals as he initiated the play that led to the first one and then assisted the second. This was the first appearance on the scoresheet of the season for the left-back, who had seven chances created and 14 crosses over his last three starts.

ROTOWIRE
Suspension over
Rosales completed his one-game suspension and will be available to face Charlotte on Sunday.
Impact
Rosales has already been suspended twice this season, but he's been ever-present in the starting lineup when available. That streak will probably continue against Charlotte this weekend, with Rosales expected to return to his regular left-back role.

ROTOWIRE
Sent off again
Rosales was sent off in the 89th minute of Saturday's match against Real Salt Lake after picking up his second yellow card of the match.
Impact
Rosales has already earned his second suspension of the season, as he not only received a yellow card in the 40th minute but also was given one in the 89th minute, leading to a red card and his removal from the match. He will now miss out on the club's next match against Houston on April 13, with Devin Padelford most likely taking over his spot at left-back while Victor Eriksson moves into the middle of the defense. Rosales will next be an option on April 21 to face Charlotte.

ROTOWIRE
Seven crosses in Saturday's draw
Rosales had seven crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Columbus Crew.
Impact
Rosales had another productive match to start the season, highlighted by his seven crosses and two corner kicks. He was productive once again defensively as he won two tackles and intercepted five passes as he once again played the full 90 minutes.

Excels in start

Impact
For Minnesota United's first game of 2024, the team had Rosales start at left-back, where he started a few times in the second half of 2023, and he took the promotion in stride. He created more chances and logged more accurate crosses than any of his teammates did Saturday. Ideally for Rosales, his latest log is a sign of what is to come for him in terms of output and opportunities this season.

ROTOWIRE
First career goal
Rosales scored his first MLS goal and played 1,094 minutes in 2023.
Impact
Rosales played the most minutes of his career in 2023, though that actually came on just 18 appearances, fewer than he had in 2022. The midfielder will hope to see his role continue to grow in 2024 as he looks to truly take a step forward and avoid hamstring injuries.
