NEW YORK (Thursday, October 20, 2022) – Major League Soccer today announced that Orlando City SC goalkeeper Pedro Gallese has claimed the 2022 MLS Save of the Year presented by Allstate for his save in Orlando’s match against Atlanta United on July 17.
In the 82nd minute of the match, Gallese went into a full-body stretch, elevating to block a long-range shot that was curling into the top corner (WATCH HERE). Gallese recorded a career high nine shutouts in 2022 as well as a shutout in the U.S. Open Cup Final that Orlando won 3-0 over Sacramento Republic.
The MLS Save of the Year presented by Allstate was determined by fan votes on MLSsoccer.com, and the award was established in 2009.
