Save of the Week

Houston Dynamo goalkeeper Tyler Deric's stunning save nets him fourth Save of the Week award

Deric's stunning own-goal save nets him fourth Save of the Week award

We've seen this story before. Houston Dynamo goalkeeper Tyler Deric has taken home Save of the Week honors for the fourth time this season.


This time, his winning-save was a bit unorthodox. Real Salt Lake's Abdoulie Mansally sent in a cross from the left wing that Dynamo defender Raul Rodriguez tried to clear. His clearance ended up going straight towards his own net but fortunately for him, Deric was there to make an outstanding reflex save.


Deric's stop netted him 44.4 percent of the vote. The Dynamo 'keeper previously won Save of the Week in three consecutive weeks, starting in Week 2. Week 19 winner Evan Bush finished second with 29.62 percent of the vote.


D.C. United stand-in Andrew Dykstra placed third with 13.15 percent of the ballots. New York City FC's Josh Saunders and Chicago Fire 'keeper Sean Johnson finished fourth and fifth, respectively.


1. Tyler Deric (HOU) - 44.4%
2. Evan Bush (MTL) - 29.62%
3. Andrew Dykstra (DC) - 13.15%
4. Josh Saunders (NYC) - 8.51%
5. Sean Johnson (CHI) - 4.32%
