With a pair of goals in Minnesota’s first road win in MLS, Abu Danladi earned a spot in the Week 25 edition of MLS Team of the Week. This is the forward’s first time being named to the Team of the Week.
Danladi notched his fourth and fifth goals of the season as the Loons soared to a 2-1 victory over the Chicago Fire on Saturday night. His first came in the 36th minute when the ball fell favorably to Ethan Finlay after his cross was blocked. This allowed the Minnesota-born midfielder to feed an easy pass to Danladi for a wide-open shot on goal.
