Rafael Cabral - Four saves in loss Rafael made four saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 defeat against Portland Timbers.

Impact Cabral faced relentless attacking pressure after his side were reduced to ten men in the 34th minute, making four saves all from inside the box but being beaten twice from headed corners. The goalkeeper has now conceded five goals across his last two games and remains without an away clean sheet this season, with another road test against Saint Louis City coming up on Saturday.

Juan Manuel Sanabria - Adds first MLS goal Juan Sanabria scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Portland Timbers.

Impact Sanabria was involved in two of his side's six shots in the game, creating one and converting another to open his league account for the season. The left wing back has been growing in influence across his last seven games, accumulating one goal and two assists from seven shots and 14 chances created while also contributing 15 tackles, eight interceptions and 15 clearances defensively in that period.

Morgan Guilavogui - Set for suspension after red card Guilavogui delivered an assist before being sent off in the first half of Saturday's duel versus Portland Timbers.

Impact Guilavogui kicked an opposing player in the face, and the aggression was judged intentional after VAR review, leading to his exit from the weekend's match. It was an unfortunate action for the winger, who had produced his fourth assist of the season earlier in the game. He'll be suspended for the next MLS fixture against St. Louis, so another player such as Saba Lobzhanidze will move into the initial squad. After that, Guilavogui will be available to face Minnesota United on Aug. 15.

Saba Lobzhanidze - Debut assist in loss Lobzhanidze provided one assist to go with four corners in Wednesday's 3-1 defeat to Los Angeles Football Club.

Impact Lobzhanidze came on for Diego Luna in the 78th minute to make his RSL debut, immediately taking over corner kick duties and delivering the precise delivery that Lukas Engel headed home in the 86th minute. He also had a shot on target in stoppage time and delivered four corners in total across his cameo, with his set-piece quality the most encouraging sign from a difficult RSL evening.

Lukas Engel - Late header caps defeat Engel scored a late header in Wednesday's 3-1 defeat versus Los Angeles Football Club.

Impact Engel pulled one back for RSL in the 86th minute, heading home Saba Lobzhanidze's corner to give the visitors a consolation in what had been a 3-0 defeat throughout the second half. He had struggled defensively throughout the match, with Son Heung-Min and Jacob Shaffelburg repeatedly exploiting space in behind him on the left side of RSL's back line during the first hour. His goal was his first of the season in nine appearances in the MLS.

Rafael Cabral - One save in defeat Rafael registered one save and allowed two goals in Wednesday's 3-1 defeat against Los Angeles Football Club.

Impact Rafael made one save in Wednesday's 3-1 MLS defeat at LAFC and was beaten by Son Heung-Min's 11th minute low drive, Denis Bouanga's 40th minute finish and an own goal from DeAndre Yedlin in the 68th minute. He was let down by a defensive structure that gave LAFC too much space in behind on multiple occasions, particularly on the third goal where Yedlin's miscommunication with the back line left the goalkeeper stranded. Rafael now has two MLS clean sheets in 15 appearances this season and will look to show a better face in Saturday's clash against Portland.

Juan Jose Arias - Converts loan into permanent deal Arias has had his loan with Real Salt Lake converted into a permanent transfer from Atletico Nacional, with terms running through the 2028-29 season and a club option for 2029-30,...

Impact Arias is a centerback who signed with Atletico Nacional as an 18-year-old in February 2022 and went on to make 74 appearances across all competitions, scoring once and helping the Colombian club win five domestic trophies, including the 2022 Apertura and 2024 Clausura league titles. Since joining Real Salt Lake on loan, he has yet to feature in a competitive match, having dealt with a long groin injury, and was named to the bench for the first time this season in the club's last game before the World Cup break, a 1-1 draw with Minnesota United. Chief soccer officer Kurt Schmid pointed to his consistent development and maturity at Nacional as key factors in making the move permanent, adding that the club sees him as a long-term contributor to the defensive unit once he works his way back to full fitness.
