Petrovic, who joined New England from Serbian first-division side FK Čukarički in April, owns a 1.3 goals against average and a 6-7-7 record over his 20 starts with the club. He's put up a lot of donuts, racking up seven clean sheets for the Revs.
Petrovic is the fourth keeper to earn Team MVP honors in New England, joining Walter Zenga (1997), Matt Reis (2006 and 2011), and Matt Turner (2020). He was also voted Player of the Year by his New England teammates, and is a candidate for 2022 MLS Newcomer of the Year and MLS Goalkeeper of the Year.
