Kacper Przybylko named to MLS Team of the Week

Nine goals. The only players in MLS with more play in LA, set the MLS single season scoring record last season, or arrived in the league as the best English striker of a generation.

Kacper Przybylko is announcing himself, and the league recognized the Union's star striker by placing him on the Team of the Week.

Przybylko scored on June 29 against NYCFC, at Orlando City SC, and at home against Orlando; he is now third in the league in road goals, behind only the dynamic LAFC duo of Carlos Vela and Diego Rossi.

But even before Przybylko stretched his current streak of games with a goal to four by opening July with three in two matches, the giant German was putting up numbers on par with the league's elite strikers.
