Leaves with injury versus St. Louis
Da Costa suffered a blow to the head that led to his substitution in the opening stages of Wednesday's meeting with St. Louis City.
Analysis: Da Costa is a key attacking player for Portland, so losing him would imply a huge problem after he was hit by a ball with plenty of force in the midweek match. However, the exact severity of the issue remains to be determined heading into upcoming MLS game weeks. The Portuguese was in great form after recording three goals and four assists over his last 10 appearances across all competitions, and it would be difficult for the team to find a more inspired option to fill in for him. During the match against St. Louis, it was a more defensive-minded Diego Chara who subbed on for Da Costa.
Assists in win
David Da Costa assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 5-4 victory against Minnesota United.
Analysis: Da Costa provided one assist during Saturday's win. The midfielder sent in three crosses from three corners and was involved on set-pieces in general throughout the match. That role helps him maintain a solid floor and if Portland keep scoring anywhere near this rate Da Costa will have plenty of upside moving forward in the back half of the MLS campaign.
