Maccabi Tel AvivDelivers one assist
Turgeman assisted once to go with three shots (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 win over Minnesota United.
Analysis: Turgeman was at the center of both New England goals in Saturday's 2-1 win over Minnesota, first winning a penalty in the first half after Michael Boxall pulled him down at the top corner of the box, then triggering the decisive counterattack after the break by carrying the ball forward and combining with Luca Langoni in a two-on-two move before the Argentine finished past Drake Callender. The Israeli forward operates as a mobile, pressing striker who creates space through intelligent runs and draws defenders out of position, with his defensive work rate and pressing intensity proving just as valuable as his attacking output. Turgeman has now scored two goals and contributed four assists across 13 MLS appearances this season.
Goes missing in loss to Nashville
Turgeman took one shot (off target) in Wednesday's loss to Nashville.
Analysis: Turgeman was non-existent against a rock-solid Nashville back line. He has now gone five consecutive games without putting the ball in the back of the net, and he has just two goals in 12 appearances this season. His next opportunity comes at home on Saturday against Minnesota United.
Sets up opener
Turgeman assisted once to go with five shots (three on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-1 draw versus Inter Miami CF.
Analysis: Turgeman assisted Carles Gil's opener in the 56th minute following a long throw. Turgeman completed 13 passes and recorded a clearance. He has now contributed to three goals in his last four appearances, taking his tally to five goal contributions in nine matches this campaign.
