Yeimar named to MLS Team of the Matchday after strong defensive performance over Houston Dynamo

9.30 Yeimar

Following the club's 1-0 win over the Houston Dynamo on Saturday night, Seattle Sounders center back Yeimar was named to Major League Soccer’s Team of the Matchday for Matchday 35.

This is the first time Yeimar has been honored with TOTM honors in the 2024 regular season.

Yeimar’s defensive dominance in the back line was a significant factor in the Sounders’ league-leading 11tth shutout of the season. The Colombian international posted eight clearances, seven interceptions, eight recoveries, and eight duels won throughout the 90 minutes of the match. His defensive contributions helped restrict the Dynamo to just one shot on target all night.

The Sounders return to action on Oct. 2 as they take on the Vancouver Whitecaps at BC Place (7:30 p.m. PT; Watch on MLS Season Pass on Apple TV).
