Scores equalizer against LAFC
Caliskan scored one goal to go with four shots (two on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-2 draw against Los Angeles Football Club.
Analysis: Caliskan scored RSL's decisive equalizer in the 75th minute, pouncing on Hugo Lloris' diving parry from his own first effort to slot home from close range and tie the match at 2-2 with 15 minutes remaining. He registered four shots including two on goal across the full 90 minutes as RSL's most persistent midfield attacking threat in the second half. Caliskan now has one goal and three assists in 22 MLS appearances this season.
Inks contract extension
Caliskan has extended his contract with Real Salt Lake until the 2028/29 season with an option for 2029/30, the club announced Thursday.
Analysis: Caliskan will likely retain a significant role for the remainder of the season after securing a new deal, with the midfielder playing all possible minutes in the first nine weeks of the current campaign. During that period, he has delivered two assists while racking up seven shots (one on target), nine chances created, 25 clearances and 11 tackles.
