United, becoming the first Union player to score multiple hat-tricks, and joining Cobi Jones as the only players to have scored two hat-tricks against the same side in a single MLS season.[10] Carranza also became the first Philadelphia player to score three goals and register an assist in the same match, and by being voted MLS Player of the Week again, he became only the second Union player after Sébastien Le Toux (2010) to win the award twice in the same season.[11]
