What happened: His second goal pulled the game level at 3-3 before his club fell 5-4. The two-goal outing lifted his 2026 total to four.

Why it matters: The honor recognizes a streak spanning three consecutive MLS appearances. The defeat wasted four goals and ended a two-match unbeaten run.

By the numbers: Caldeira scored once in each of his previous two appearances before doubling that output in Portland.

What to watch: His next chance to extend the streak comes Wednesday at home.
