Wallem's one match suspension for yellow card accumulation has now been served.
Analysis: Wallem had missed the match against Portland with Rafael Santos stepping into the lineup in his place, an absence that came after he scored his first goal of the season against Vancouver just before picking up the ban. His return to availability now positions him to reclaim his spot in the starting lineup as the season continues.
Scores, set for ban
Wallem scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-1 win against Vancouver Whitecaps FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 36th minute and is set for a one match suspension.
Analysis: Wallem will serve his second suspension of the season, this one coming from yellow‑card accumulation. He did manage to find the net against Vancouver, his first goal of the campaign, before picking up the ban. With him sidelined, Rafael Santos is expected to step into the XI against Portland.
Provides assist in draw
Wallem assisted once to go with three crosses (zero accurate) and two chances created in Sunday's 3-3 draw versus FC Dallas.
Analysis: Wallem produced at both ends of the field Sunday, ranking second on the team with three tackles and finishing as the hosts' only player with multiple chances created, one of which was a dangerous low ball that set up Carlo Holse in the 64th minute of the game. It was the second direct contribution for Wallem in the 2026 season, adding to his assist against San Jose on Aug. 16 and placing him one goal or assist shy of his previous campaign's total. He has found consistency as a wing-back and could continue to offer steady all-around value in that position throughout the season.
Sets up opener
Wallem assisted once to go with one cross (zero accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 win over San Jose Earthquakes. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 77th minute.
Analysis: Wallem set up the opener for Daniel Edelman in the eighth minute. Wallem recorded 36 passes and also contributed defensively with five clearances, three tackles and an interception. This was his first goal contribution of the campaign.
Available after return to practice
Wallem cleared the concussion protocol and returned to training during the week, with St. Louis removing him from its injury report ahead of Saturday's meeting with Colorado, Matt Baker of Flyover Footy reports.
Analysis: Wallem was left out of only one game while in the concussion protocol, and he could now re-enter the rotation on the right wing. The midfielder remains without a goal or assist over 13 league appearances this year, and he's averaging 0.9 shots, 1.1 chances created and 2.0 tackles per game. He'll challenge Tomas Totland and Jaziel Orozco for starts going forward.
Lands in concussion protocol
Wallem has been placed in concussion protocol and is out at least for Wednesday's matchup versus Los Angeles FC.
Analysis: Wallem was St. Louis' first-choice right wing-back throughout the first few months of the competition, and losing him forces them to modify their preferred lineup, with Jaziel Orozco and Tomas Ostrak competing for the spot. The concussion protocol designation requires completing the formal return-to-play steps before he can be cleared to compete again. The process is mandatory and the club will take the appropriate time with his recovery. Consequently, no timeline can be estimated until Wallem has progressed through each stage of the protocol.
No longer suspended
Wallem has served his one-match suspension and will return to face Sporting Kansas City on July 16 following the World Cup break.
Analysis: Wallem had been forced to sit out the Austin FC fixture after receiving a second yellow card late in last week's draw against D.C. United, with Tomas Totland covering on the right flank in his absence. The midfielder is expected to slot straight back into the starting lineup against Sporting Kansas City once MLS action resumes after the tournament.
Sent off in draw
Wallem received a red card during Saturday's 1-1 draw against D.C. United.
Analysis: Wallem is now banned for the upcoming meeting with Austin FC after being shown a late second yellow card Saturday. This means he won't return to contention until after the World Cup break, when he'll be eligible for a July 16 matchup versus Sporting Kansas City. Until then, Tomas Totland could have a chance to produce on the right flank.
Starting Sunday
Wallem (undisclosed) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Austin.
Analysis: Wallem is back in the team sheet after he was forced off last match, with the midfielder immediately starting. It appears the injury was only minor, so he should remain on the right flank, having yet to miss a start all season.
Forced off Wednesday
Wallem (undisclosed) was forced off in the 59th minute of Wednesday's 2-1 victory against Chicago in the US Open Cup after going down injured, leaving his availability for Sunday's clash against Austin uncertain, according to Matt Baker of Flyover Footy.
Analysis: Wallem couldn't make it to the hour mark during Wednesday's clash against the Fire and while no details have been provided on the nature of the issue, St. Louis City will assess Wallem over the coming days before making a call on his involvement against Austin. Tomas Totland is expected to step in if Wallem needs to sit out any upcoming fixtures, with the club hoping the issue is not serious heading into the stretch before the WC break.
