Ghanaian defender Jonathan Mensah played a crucial role in helping San Jose Earthquakes secure a 1-0 victory over Colorado Rapids in the 2023 Major League Soccer.

According to the statistics, Mensah played the full 90 minutes, completed 69 out of 77 passes, created one chance, and made two clearances, four ball recoveries, and three aerial duels won. He had 83 touches and six final-third passes during the match.

Cristian Espinoza scored the decisive goal in the 78th minute of the encounter, with Mensah delivering an impressive performance throughout the match. Mensah has now featured in all three games for San Jose Earthquakes since joining from Columbus Crew at the beginning of the season.

His consistent performance on the field has been a vital asset to the team, as they continue their quest to climb the league table.

Mensah's compatriot Las Abubakar, who started for Colorado Rapids, was substituted in the 39th minute due to an injury.

San Jose Earthquakes currently occupy the fourth position on the league table with six points, and the team will be hoping that Mensah's impressive form will continue to help them achieve their objectives for the season.
