CJ Sapong was named to MLS's Team of the Week, thanks to his solid performance against Minnesota United FC.
Sapong got the Union on the board early with a goal in the fifth minute. Fafa Picault had the ball down the right side of the pitch when he sent a cross into the box. Sapong was crashing the net, and got a foot on the pass, deflecting it into the top corner of the net where Minnesota United FC goalkeeper Bobby Shuttleworth couldn't reach it.
Sapong's goal was his 13th of the season, extending his career-high and team-high.
