Teen Star Shatters MLS Records | MLS News

Sixteen-year-old Cavan Sullivan just shattered records, becoming the youngest ever MLS Player of the Matchday after dropping a career-first brace and adding an assist in Philly’s 5-0 rout. In his last seven games, he’s racked up 12 goal contributions — five goals, seven assists — scoring or assisting in every match. His explosive run has been the heartbeat of the Union’s 10-game unbeaten streak, lifting them from the Eastern Conference basement to playoff contention. With 17 goal contributions this season, he’s third all-time for a teenager in MLS history — just behind the record holder. And he’s not alone: the Union now have back-to-back Matchday winners — a first in franchise history. They’re primed to keep rolling when they face Kansas City this Saturday.
