DC UnitedNotches another assist
Kurokawa sent in five crosses, took four corners, created one chance, and assisted on a goal in Saturday's 2-2 draw with Nashville SC.
Analysis: Kurokawa notched an assist for the second time in three games after failing to impact the scoresheet through the first nine games of his MLS career. The left back has a role on set pieces, and could continue to pop up with the occasional attacking contribution over the remainder of the season. He'll look to keep it going at home against the Chicago Fire on Wednesday.
Fortunate assist Saturday
Kurokawa assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal), seven crosses (one accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Orlando City SC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 94th minute.
Analysis: Kurokawa set up Jackson Hopkins, but it was the latter who should get all the credit, considering he scored from outside Orlando's penalty box for an excellent goal. Nonetheless, the former gets his first goal contribution since transferring from Gamba Osaka.
