Sent off after busy shift
Dos Santos made two saves and saved a penalty while conceding three goals before picking up two yellow cards and being sent off in the 80th minute of Wednesday's 3-2 loss to San Jose.
Analysis: Dos Santos will miss at least one game due to the suspension, sitting out Sunday's match against Philadelphia, with Duran Ferree expected to replace him in goal. This follows a recent stretch that already saw him go multiple matches without a clean sheet, and his path back into the starting role will be worth monitoring once the suspension is served.
Three saves in loss
CJ Dos Santos recorded three saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Orlando City SC.
Analysis: Dos Santos turned in three saves and produced a standout stop to deny Antoine Griezmann a clear opportunity, but a 28th minute goal ruled out any chance of a clean sheet for the second consecutive league game, marking the first time since his reappointment that he has gone more than one match without a shutout. He will hope to bounce back midweek on Wednesday against San Jose, a side that has struggled for goals recently with just two in their last four games.
Keeps clean sheet Saturday
Dos Santos made two saves and secured a clean sheet in Saturday's 3-0 win versus Colorado Rapids.
Analysis: Dos Santos kept his third clean sheet in his last five starts Saturday, easily keeping Colorado scoreless with just two saves. He's been productive this season since recovering from a nose injury and then serving at the World Cup with Cabo Verde, conceding four goals, making 15 saves and keeping three clean sheets across his last five starts.
Concedes three in loss
CJ Dos Santos recorded two saves and allowed three goals in Wednesday's 3-1 defeat versus Portland Timbers.
Analysis: Dos Santos entered the game in good form since reclaiming the starting spot ahead of Duran Ferree, having kept two clean sheets in his previous three league outings. That form took a hit as he shipped three goals and made only two saves. He will next be in action on Saturday against Colorado Rapids.
Three saves in 1-0 win
CJ Dos Santos registered three saves and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 victory over Los Angeles Football Club.
Analysis: Dos Santos kept his second clean sheet of the season and both have come in the last three games. The keeper made three saves but was also lucky to keep the ball out. Denis Bounga had the ball in the back of the net, but the ball luckily touched his arm for San Diego and the goal was disallowed.
Seven saves in 1-1 draw
CJ Dos Santos registered seven saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Minnesota United.
Analysis: CJ Dos Santos started his fifth game of the season for San Diego this season and helped his team to a 1-1 draw against Minnesota. This was his second game in which he made seven saves this season, although he conceded four goals in the other game in which he made seven saves.
Registers clean sheet
Dos Santos recorded one save and allowed zero goals in Saturday's 1-0 victory over FC Dallas.
Analysis: A single save was enough for Dos Santos to register his first clean sheet of the campaign. He has taken the place of Duran Ferree for three games in a row and will be expected to start against Minnesota United next weekend.
Concedes Late Winner
Dos Santos had no saves and allowed one goal in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat against Colorado Rapids.
Analysis: Dos Santos was unable to make a save in Wednesday's 1-0 defeat at Colorado, conceding Loic Williams' stoppage-time debut goal after the defender converted Paxten Aaronson's assist to end what had been a well-organized San Diego defensive performance that looked likely to earn a point. The goalkeeper heads into San Diego's next match against Dallas having now conceded nine goals and kept no clean sheets across his first three appearances of the season, with his side remaining winless on the road.
Concedes four in loss
CJ Dos Santos registered seven saves and allowed four goals in Saturday's 4-2 loss against Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Analysis: Dos Santos entered the lineup in place of Duran Feere and endured a tough outing, conceding four goals to equal his heaviest defeat since joining the side last season, though he still managed seven saves with four from inside the box. San Diego's next action comes after a lengthy break due to the World Cup, with their next fixture set for July. 22 against Colorado Rapids.
On bench Saturday
Dos Santos (nose) is on the bench in Saturday's match against Cincinnati.
Analysis: Dos Santos had just made his first appearance of the season before missing two contests with a nose issue. He's now available but will have to compete for the spot with Saturday's starter Duran Ferree and late signing Jacob Jackson.
Dealing with nose issue
Dos Santos is currently sidelined after coach Mikey Varas revealed that "CJ has a nose injury. It shouldn't be a long term, but it's also definitely not a quick turnaround, so he just needs to focus on his recovery to be able to play again", SanDiego Futbol reports.
Analysis: Dos Santos is expected to miss some time, even though his problem is not considered extremely serious, as the club already signed Jacob Jackson to provide backup alongside Duran Ferree for the next few weeks. Dos Santos got hurt in his first MLS start of the year, where he made two saves and conceded one goal to Los Angeles FC.
Two saves in season debut
Dos Santos was injured and subbed out in the 98th minute of Saturday's 2-2 draw against Los Angeles Football Club. He registered two saves and allowed one goal before exiting the match.
Analysis: Dos Santos made two saves in Saturday's 2-2 MLS draw with LAFC, keeping San Diego on track for a first home win of the month in his season debut before Ryan Hollingshead pounced to bundle home Mathieu Choiniere's pass in the 104th minute, snatching away all three points in the dying chaos of a heavily extended stoppage time stretch. He was rock solid in his positioning on both stops, including a sharp reaction save on a Denis Bouanga effort in the 85th minute, but had no chance on Hollingshead's point-blank finish off the set piece. Dos Santos was unfortunately forced off injured in the 89th minute, which should open the door for Duran Ferree to start in goal again with Pablo Sisniega (back) still sidelined.
