Two Assists in draw
Evander assisted twice to go with two shots (two on goal), two crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 3-3 draw versus San Diego FC.
Analysis: Evander was the standout creative performer in Saturday's 3-3 draw at Snapdragon Stadium, first threading a precise through ball in the first half that carved open San Diego's backline for Kenji Mboma Dem to finish, then delivering the corner in the second half that Tom Barlow converted in traffic to give his side a 2-1 lead. The Brazilian playmaker operates as the creative hub behind Cincinnati's strikers, and his influence on both goals illustrated why he is the most important figure in his side's attacking structure. Evander has now recorded seven goals and three assists across 13 MLS appearances this season, establishing himself as one of the best attacking midfielders in MLS this campaign.
Scores in defeat
Evander scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 5-3 defeat versus Inter Miami CF. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 94th minute.
Analysis: Evander got in on the goalscoring during Wednesday's loss, but it wasn't enough to earn even a point in the match as Miami proved to be too much to handle for the defense. Evander was his usually excellent self in the attack, but it just wasn't enough. He will hope to keep this sort of offensive form going as he continues to put himself right amongst the best in MLS.
Scores in 2-2 draw
Evander scored one goal to go with five shots (three on goal), six crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Charlotte FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 77th minute.
Analysis: Evander scored his sixth goal of the MLS season as Cincinnati drew 2-2 away to Charlotte. Four of his goals have come in the last two games, both of which were away, making it five goals in away games this season. He took five shots, putting three on target, and created two chances. This is the fifth time this season he has taken five or more shots, and the third time he has put three shots on target.
First MLS hat trick
Evander scored three goals to go with six shots (three on goal), two crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 3-2 victory against Chicago Fire.
Analysis: Evander stole the show with his first MLS hat trick to clinch the win, returning to scoring in open play for the first time this season with a first half brace before adding a stoppage time penalty to complete the treble.The Brazilian has hit strong form after a slow start to the season, registering 22 shots and creating 11 chances across his last four matches.
Scores again
Evander scored one goal to go with five shots (two on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Wednesday's 4-4 draw versus New York City FC.
Analysis: Evander knocks in a goal Wednesday for his second one in a row. It's been somewhat of a slow start for the midfielder, only recording two goals with one assist through eight MLS matches this season, creating 20 chances qith 39 crosses (13 accurate).
