MLS Week 14 Best XI: Bingham's nine-save night gives him top honors | OneFootball

Columbus miraculously came back from three goals down to draw TFC  and FC Dallas came away with a pair of wins against the teams from Los Angeles.

Here’s who we liked in week 14.

Goalkeeper:

David Bingham (LA Galaxy)

Despite a loss against FC Dallas on Wednesday, Bingham more than made up for it with a stunning nine-save performance that included several highlight reel stops to prevent Portland Timbers from winning their seventh match in a row.

Defenders:

Ryan Hollingshead (FC Dallas)

Hollingshead certainly had himself a week in a pair of wins against LAFC and the LA Galaxy. His goal against the LA Galaxy was an absolute peach, and he added an assist in each match. The fifth-year defender previously had four goals and three assists in 95 career appearances.

Justen Glad (Real Salt Lake)

The RSL centre-back continues to impress and is due to get called up to the USMNT in the near-future. RSL won both their matches over Seattle and Houston this, allowing just one goal in the process. Glad was the catalyst in the back, making 12 clearances, 10 recoveries, and four interceptions to help extend their winning streak to three.

Antonio Delamea (New England Revolution)

Delamea was running rampant and throwing his body on the line to give New England four points in matches against Atlanta and the Red Bulls. He combined for 17 recoveries and 12 clearances and made a number of crucial defensive contributions.

Midfielders:

Federico Higuaín (Columbus Crew)

Miguel Almirón (Atlanta United)

Mauro Díaz (FC Dallas)

Bořek Dočkal (Philadelphia Union)

The Czech Republic international picked the Chicago Fire apart last Wednesday, scoring a goal and contributing a pair of assists in their 3-1 win.

Forwards:

Teal Bunbury (New England Revolution)

Bunbury capped off an incredible all-around performance with a late match-winning goal to stun the New York Red Bulls 2-1 and send a statement to the rest of Major League Soccer. Bunbury also scored a late penalty to give New England a 1-1 draw against Atlanta. He now has eight goals in his last 11 matches.

Ismael Tajouri-Shradi (NYCFC)

The Libyan’s brace helped guide NYCFC to a 3-0 win over a dangerous Orlando City side, handing them their fourth straight defeat. Tajouri-Shradi has been incredible when he’s been healthy, as he’s scored seven goals and added an assist since joining from Austria Wien before the season.

Josef Martínez (Atlanta United)

If you score a hat-trick, you make the list. That’s the rule. Martínez took full advantage of a Philadelphia Union forced to play with nine men for over 70 minutes, although Philadelphia put up a fight and kept it close until Martínez finished his treble in the 83rd minute with his second penalty of the match.
