Portland sidelined him, even though he had previously proven himself as one of the best goalkeepers in the MLS league. But what was a loss for Portland was a goal scored for New England Revolution. After moving to the vicinity of Boston, Aljaž Ivačič is once again proving to be a goalkeeper who can make a difference in the MLS league. The 30-year-old is a member of the worst team in the competition, which has only achieved its second win of the season this time.
Former club of Anton Delamea Mlinar, defeated Nashville 2-1 away, with Aljaž Ivačič making a significant contribution. The goalkeeper, who has also played for Olimpija in Slovenia, made 4 saves, including a crucial one in the 57th minute. With the visitors leading 2-0, the home team earned a penalty, which was taken by Hany Mukhtar.
However, the former young German international, who has previously played for Benfica, Hertha, Red Bull Salzburg, and Brondby, faced a formidable obstacle. Aljaž Ivačič stopped his attempt with an excellent save, ensuring that New England Revolution remained at a safe distance. Ten minutes before the end, Mukhtar found a way to beat the Slovenian, but the guests held on and, as mentioned, secured their second win of the season.
