New York City FC goalkeeper Josh Saunders has been nominated for MLS Save of the Week for week 11.
Saunders had seven saves against Portland, one of which has been nominated. In the 47th minute, Portland’s Darlington Nagbe found himself right in front of the net. Nagbe fired a shot on goal and Saunders dove to his right, stretched and denied Nagbe, keeping Portland off the board.
For Saunders this is the third time he has been nominated for MLS Save of the Week (Week one and four).
Saunders faces off against Andre Blake from Philadelphia in the first round.
