On Matchday 20, Atlanta United's Tristan Muyumba emerged as the winner of the AT&T Goal of the Matchday award, securing 39.6% of the fan vote. The French midfielder put his team ahead with a strike that found the top-right corner, sparking a Five Stripes 2-1 comeback victory against Red Bull New York.
Coming in second place was Niklas Dorsch, the German midfielder for Toronto FC. Dorsch, who scored his first MLS goal in style by blasting a long-range rocket, earned 26.1% of the fan vote after Toronto FC ended their 12-match winless streak with a 2-1 win over the New England Revolution.
Third place was awarded to Sam Surridge, the English forward for Nashville SC. Surridge netted his team's fourth goal with a deft backheel finish inside the six-yard box, in a 4-1 triumph over Inter Miami CF.
Rounding out the top four was Ervin Torres, the homegrown midfielder for Austin FC. Despite his team's narrow 2-1 loss to Texas rivals FC Dallas, Torres' blistering blast from outside the box secured him 8.5% of the fan vote.
