Assists in win
Sabbi assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), three crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Austin FC.
Analysis: Sabbi delivered a great cross into the box that Ryan Gauld finished to level the match early in the second half. His four goals and 25 chances created across 25 matches this season reflect consistent attacking involvement from the right wing, and with 48 shots and 3.29 expected assists on the campaign, his direct contributions have come somewhat below what his overall output warrants. His next fixture against Colorado, who sit ninth in the Western Conference, presents a favorable opportunity to add to both tallies.
Undergoes surgery
Sabbi (groin) will remain unavailable until August following successful procedure to repair a sports hernia, his club reported Friday.
Analysis: Sabbi is now facing a considerable recovery that leaves him out of upcoming league games, including at least four contests after the World Cup break. The winger played 11 MLS matches in the first half of 2026, racking up two goals and two assists from 21 shots (nine on target) and 11 chances created over that span. His absence means Kenji Cabrera, Thomas Muller and Cheikh Tidiane Sabaly should continue to appear in the attacking midfield line.
