Mauro Manotas was named to the Team of the Week after helping the Dynamo claim its second road victory of the season, the league announced today.
Manotas was named to the Team of the Week bench after scoring and assisting as the Dynamo defeated Toronto FC 3-1 on Saturday. Manotas set up the eventual game-winning goal by midfielder Tomás Martinez after backheeling a cross towards Martinez and scored a spectacular solo goal after receiving the ball from midfield and dribbling through the Toronto defense.
This is Manotas’s third appearance on the Team of the Week, after being named on back-to-back Teams of the Week following a goal and an assist against Columbus Crew S.
