Makes six saves at Real Salt Lake
Hansen recorded six saves and allowed two goals in Saturday's 2-1 loss to Real Salt Lake.
Analysis: Hansen did a great job despite the loss, as he posted a season-high count of saves during his fifth MLS game of the year. The keeper also raised his average to 3.6 shots stopped per contest. He has provided cover for the absence of Zack Steffen (shoulder) in the last three games, although it's still unclear how much longer that situation will continue while the regular starter works on his recovery.
Two saves in clean sheet
Hansen registered two saves and secured a clean sheet in Wednesday's 1-0 win versus Minnesota United.
Analysis: With Zack Steffen (upper body) still sidelined, Hansen retained his place for a second successive start and delivered a composed performance. He kept things tidy between the sticks, making two saves to claim a much-needed clean sheet, only his first shutout in four starts this campaign but his fourth in 14 outings overall with the club. Another test awaits against Real Salt Lake on Saturday.
