United goalkeeper Bill Hamid has been nominated for MLS Save of the Week after his seven-save performance against the Chicago Fire on May 20. The 26-year-old recorded at least five saves for the seventh time this season and denied MLS goal leader Nemanja Nikolic on numerous occasions.
In the 84th minute, Hamid dove down to his right to stop the low shot from Nikolic and helped keep Chicago's lead to only one.

Hamid also recently became the fourth-youngest player (tied with Kyle Beckerman) to reach 15,000 minutes played in the league. The Black-and-Red's first Homegrown Player is the current MLS leader in saves, with 48.
