Makes four saves Freese registered four saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 3-1 victory versus Chicago Fire.

Impact Freese delivered another strong performance for NYCFC, making four saves while allowing just one goal in Saturday's victory.

Concedes once in MLS return Freese registered three saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 2-1 victory against Columbus Crew.

Impact After starting four matches for the United States at the World Cup, including the loss to Belgium which he will hope to forget, Freese made his return to MLS play Wednesday. He was well on his way to marking his return with a clean sheet, but Daniel Gazdag converted a penalty in the 93rd minute. Next up is a more difficult matchup versus Chicago Fire on Saturday, a side which has scored 29 goals through 15 matches this season.

Crucial error against Belgium Freese had three saves and allowed four goals in Monday's 4-1 loss against Belgium.

Impact Freese's performance plummeted after a promising start to the game, with his team conceding four goals, one of which was entirely his fault as he lost possession of the ball outside his box. It was an odd mistake for a keeper who had otherwise been reliable between the posts, allowing just one goal over his previous three starts. However, he ended up with eight saves and five goals against across four matches played during his first World Cup.

Clean sheet against Bosnia Freese recorded three saves and secured a clean sheet in Wednesday's 2-0 win versus Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Impact Freese would have a decent match in net Wednesday despite little to deal with in the contest, as the goalie recorded three saves and a clean sheet. This is his second clean sheet of the World Cup thus far, also earning one against Austria. He will likely be tested more as they face Belgium in the round of 16, needing to be at his best once again.

Keeps clean sheet vs. Socceroos Freese registered two saves and allowed zero goals in Friday's 2-0 victory versus Australia.

Impact Freese didn't have much work to do since Australia failed to pose much of a threat in the final meters, aside from a few bright moments in the final 25 minutes. Freese has conceded just one goal in two starts and will look to keep it going in the group-stage finale against Turkiye on Thursday, June 25.

Allows one against Paraguay Freese allowed one goal and recorded zero saves in Friday's 4-1 win over Paraguay.

Impact Freese was given the nod in the net over Matt Turner on Friday and was not asked to do a whole lot. He would only face one shot on net, but unfortunately, that shot did find the back of the net. This is likely not how he wanted to start his tournament despite the win, especially as he gets used to the world stage. He will now have Australia next, a team he could have another relatively quiet game against.
