Inter Miami CF forward Gonzalo HiguaĆ­n has been named to the MLS Team of the Week presented by Audi for Week 32. HiguaĆ­n was named to the bench of the Team of the Week after scoring the game-winning goal over the weekend against D.C. United on Sept. 18, putting the Herons ahead and securing all three points with a strike in the fourth minute of stoppage time.

HiguaĆ­nā€™s incredible run of form has stretched back over the last thirteen games; the Argentine has scored ten times over this sterling run. HiguaĆ­n also scored the game-winning goal in Inter Miamiā€™s previous match, against the Columbus Crew.

HiguaĆ­n played the entire match against D.C. United, clinically took his goal-scoring chance in the 94th minute, led the teamā€™s offensive effort and provided a key pass in the final third.

The forward has been named to the Team of the Week several times previously this season, including in consecutive matchweeks; HiguaĆ­n featured on the team in Week 21, Week 23 where he was also voted MLS Player of the Week, and Week 31. HiguaĆ­nā€™s Week 32 Team of the Week designation ties him with Damion Lowe for the team lead in 2022 Team of the Week appearances; both players have been selected to the MLS Team of the Week four times this season.

Inter Miami has had a player or coach represent the club in the Team of the Week in 16 different weeks of the 2022 MLS Regular season.
