Domenico Criscito named to Week 26 MLS Team of the Week

A week of firsts for 35-year-old Italian International Domenico Criscito.

Criscito earns a spot on the bench for Week 26 MLS Team of the Week, his first honour of the campaign. After a hard fought battle at home, the left-back also captured his first goal with the club last Wednesday vs. New England Revolution, to level the match.

The goal came in the 75th minute off a chip from Captain Michael Bradley, in which Criscito strikes a mid-air banger to the top corner sending BMO Field in a frenzy.

Criscito also played the full 90 minutes against Inter Miami CF on Saturday, with an 83.6% Accurate Pass Percentage and 4 Interceptions on the night, despite walking away with a loss.
