New England goalkeeper Brad Knighton won his first MLS Save of the Week honor of the season on Friday, taking home the Week 26 accolade, which is presented by Phillips 66 Lubricants, for an outstanding save on Colorado’s Dillon Powers in the Revolution’s 2-0 home win against the Rapids.

Knighton made the stop in the 60th minute when Rapids attacker Dominique Badji got free on the left wing and hit a cross to Powers in the center of the area. The midfielder headed a shot that looked ticketed for the far upper corner, but Knighton acrobatically leapt to his left to tip the ball over the bar.
