Assists late goal in 4-1 win
Dos Santos assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 4-1 win over San Diego FC.
Analysis: Dos Santos came on as a late substitute and was able to assist Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting to score the final goal in the 4-1 win. This was his first goal involvement of the game and only his second time appearing from the bench.
Set to reclaim starting role
Dos Santos has returned to New York Red Bulls following international duty and is available for Saturday's MLS clash against San Diego FC after being omitted from the league's latest injury report.
Analysis: Dos Santos missed the matchup against St. Louis City SC while representing his national team but is now back in contention to resume his regular starting duties. The defender has established himself as New York's first-choice left-back this season, becoming one of the team's most reliable defensive contributors. Devin Padelford was an alternative to cover the left flank during his absence, while Emil Forsberg could have taken on additional set-piece responsibilities. With his international commitments completed, Dos Santos is expected to slot straight back into the starting XI against San Diego.
