LA GalaxyProvides assist
Reus assisted once to go with one corner and three chances created in Saturday's 2-1 win over Atlanta United.
Analysis: Reus would find Gabriel Pec for the first of his goals Saturday, linking up in the 74th minute to level the match. The German now has a fourth assist on the season, his first in four games. He is up to eight goal contributions in 12 appearances (nine starts) this season.
On bench Saturday
Reus (foot) is on the bench for the weekend visit to Atlanta United.
Analysis: Reus could see a few minutes of play after overcoming a minor blow, although his upside may be reduced in a substitute role. If given the opportunity, the experienced attacker will look to add to his four goals and three assists over 11 MLS games in 2026. Edwin Cerrillo will get the nod in central attacking midfield while Reus is on the bench.
Questionable for Saturday
Reus (foot) is considered a doubt by coach Greg Vanney for the weekend's game against Atlanta United, although the manager clarified that "He's all right. He'll be back in training tomorrow. Just a contusion, and as the contusion kind of calms down then I think he'll be out here a lot better. So I think tomorrow we'll really get a gage of how he's doing. I put him as questionable because I won't really know till tomorrow, but he's trending in... the right direction.", Corner of the Galaxy reports.
Analysis: Reus is dealing with a foot contusion after leaving the previous match against Vancouver at half time, and he could miss the next fixture or see his playing time limited if he doesn't recover fully. While his absence might be a short one, it could be a big blow to the Galaxy's attacking power, with Edwin Cerrillo taking on a greater role and both Gabriel Pec and Mauricio Cuevas benefiting in terms of set pieces.
Suffers foot contusion
Reus suffered a foot contusion in Saturday's 1-1 draw against Vancouver, according to manager Greg Vanney, per Corner of the Galaxy.
Analysis: Reus had to leave the field at halftime of Saturday's contest after he suffered an injury, which has now been deemed a foot contusion. The good news is this is something that could only keep him out for a limited time, taking the field next when facing Atlanta on May 9. The club will hope for this as they try to keep a key attacker fit, notching four goals and three assists in 11 appearances (nine starts) this season.
Tallies brace
Reus scored two goals to go with three shots (three on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and four corners in Sunday's 2-1 win against Real Salt Lake.
Analysis: Reus got what would be the winning goal from the penalty spot in a strong effort on Sunday. The attacker was aggressive and efficient, something he'll have trouble doing again when he takes on Vancouver Whitecaps. The side has only given up five goals so far this season.
