While Camilo stole the headlines for the Vancouver Whitecaps on Sunday night, one of his teammates had quite the performance of his own.

Kekuta Manneh scored once and created the opportunity for Camilo’s second of the match with a delicious through ball, as the Vancouver Whitecaps defeated the Chicago Fire, 2-1, at BC Place. Manneh’s efforts earned him SBI MLS Rookie of the Week honors.

The 18-year-old Manneh beat out the LA Galaxy’s Gyasi Zardes, Real Salt Lake defender Carlos Salcedo, and Philadelphia Union midfielder Leo Fernandes for this week’s honors.
