Scores as a sub in 4-3 loss
Sullivan scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Wednesday's 4-3 defeat versus Orlando City SC.
Analysis: Sullivan came on as a sub just before halftime and managed to score despite his side's 4-3 defeat to Orlando. The 16-year-old scored his first MLS goal, despite having made his debut in 2024. He has started four games this season, including the three games before this in a row. This is the first time this season he has taken three shots and created more than one chance in a game, where he created five.
Impressive in draw
Sullivan took two shots (one on goal), sent in five crosses, and took two corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw with Nashville SC.
Analysis: Sullivan showed flashes of why he is considered one of the world's top emerging talents. The 16-year-old prodigy has started consecutive games for the first time this season. Considering Philadelphia are desperate for an attacking spark, he could see another start on the road against the New England Revolution on Saturday.
