After a week off from action, the Columbus Crew racked up another individual award in Major League Soccer. On Wednesday, MLS named midfielder Lucas Zelarayán its Player of the Month for March. It’s the first Player of the Month award for a Crew player since May 2018 when former goalkeeper Zack Steffen gave up zero goals in five matches to take home the award. Zelarayán’s is equally warranted.
Coming off 2021, where Zelarayán ended the season with five goals and two assists in the last five matches, the midfielder hasn’t lost his touch to start this year.
