Columbus CrewScores in Saturday's win
Habroune scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-0 win over Colorado Rapids.
Analysis: Habroune provided the icing on the cake of Saturday's victory, scoring in the 94th minute off a Gonzalo Tapia assist. He also provided a secondary assist on Tapia's goal in the 81st minute. It was an excellent bench appearance for Habroune, especially considering it was his first time out of the starting XI since May 16. His place in the lineup is more up in the air now with the arrival of Santiago Rodriguez, but Habroune is capable of playing multiple positions so he should be fine.
Productive in Saturday's loss
Habroune had four shots (two on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus Charlotte FC.
Analysis: Habroune had an excellent day on the attack Saturday despite the loss. He created four chances for just the second time this season, recorded four shots for the second time in his last four appearances and set season highs in crosses (five) and corners (three). Despite all that production he didn't manage to record a goal contribution, and it's now been eight straight appearances without one. He'll hope to end that streak Wednesday versus CF Montreal.
Four shots in Wednesday's loss
Habroune generated four shots (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 2-1 loss to New York City FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 82nd minute.
Analysis: Habroune took a season-high four shots in Wednesday's return to MLS play, though he put just one on target. He also created multiple chances for the seventh time this season, easily becoming the Crew's most productive attacker in the loss. He also won one tackle and intercepted one pass in his full 90 minutes of action.
Scores opener Saturday
Habroune scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 3-2 loss versus Minnesota United.
Analysis: Habroune opened up the scoring Saturday, a strike in the 31st minute assisted by Max Arfsten. It was one of two shots he took in the match and he also created one chance on the attack. He was active on the defensive end too, recording three tackles, one interception, one clearance and one blocked shot before he was subbed off in the 92nd minute for Chase Adams.
Starts against Galaxy
Habroune (illness) is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's matchup versus Los Angeles Galaxy.
Analysis: Habroune should regain playmaking value as he makes his return from a one-game absence. The midfielder previously racked up two assists from 10 chances created across seven MLS appearances in the 2026 campaign. He'll likely cover the spot of the recently injured Andre Gomes (lower leg).
