Elias Baez - First MLS assist Baez assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 loss versus Real Salt Lake.

Impact Baez would work into the starting XI yet again and deliver a solid match, finding Aeksey Miranchuk in the 38th minute for an assist and goal. This is his first goal contribution of the season, seeing a solid start to life with the club. He would also add two interceptions, four clearances and six tackles won in the defense despite the three goals allowed in the loss.

Impact Latte Lath finally earned his first goal contribution this season, although not in the form of a goal, instead finding Aleksey Miranchuk in the 74th minute for a goal. He will now look for his first goal of the season and hope to turn around his Atlanta career, with eight shots all season.

Aleksey Miranchuk - Brace, still winless Miranchuk scored two goals to go with three shots (two on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and three chances created in Saturday's 3-2 loss against Real Salt Lake.

Impact Miranchuk would step up with two goals Saturday, finding the back of the net in the 38th and 74th minutes. That said, his club still couldn't pull out the win, a rough outing despite earning the brace. These were the club's first goals of the season as Miranchuk worked into his first start this season, likely to continue in the starting role after his performance.

Lucas Hoyos - Concedes three against RSL Hoyos recorded one save and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-2 defeat against Real Salt Lake.

Impact Hoyos continues to struggle after another rough outing, with the goalie allowing three goals while making a single save. That said, he is yet to earn a clean sheet in three matches, allowing seven goals. He will face Philadelphia next, although it will be interesting to see if the club gives Jayden Hibbert a chance after the rough start for Hoyos.

Morgan Guilavogui - First RSL goal contribution Guilavogui assisted once to go with five shots (zero on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 win over Atlanta United.

Impact Guilavogui would not only earn his first RSL start Saturday but would also earn a goal contribution, finding Sergi Solans in the 23rd minute. This comes after only 100 minutes of play with the club, showing he has some promise in MLS play. He would also earn five shots, looking to add a goal soon.

Sergi Solans - Nets opener Solans scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-2 win over Atlanta United. He was injured and subbed out in the 82nd minute.

Impact Solans would find his way into the starting XI for his first start all season, scoring in the 23rd minute for the opener. He was quite clinical as well, scoring on his one shot. He will hope this leads to more time as he shapes out a role with his new club, only playing 100 minutes with the team thus far.
