The defender was part of a back four that helped NYCFC collect their seventh clean sheet of the season. The NYCFC defense only allowed one shot on target for the whole match in the Club’s 1-0 win against the Galaxy on Saturday.

Matarrita has played in 18 matches, starting 16 for NYCFC this season.

The win was NYCFC’s fourth in a row at Yankee Stadium and ensured they would remain atop the Eastern Conference at the end of the weekend.
