Matt Reis
Matt Reis (/riːs/ REESS; born March 28, 1975) is an American former soccer player and coach who played as a goalkeeper. A long-time Major League Soccer mainstay, he has served as goalkeeper coach for LA Galaxy and the United States.
Reid was born in Atlanta and raised in Southern California. He played college soccer at UCLA. He finished his college career with an NCAA Championship in 1997, and was named 1997 NCAA College Cup Defensive MVP after recording 20 saves - including a school-record 11 in the semifinals - and posting 221 shutout minutes on the way to the title.
Reis was selected by the Los Angeles Galaxy in the third round (26th overall) in the 1998 MLS College Draft on January 31, 1998. However, with Kevin Hartman firmly entrenched as the club's starter, Reis did not see much playing time during his five seasons in LA. Reis' largest contribution to the club came in 2001, when he made 16 appearances (15 starts), recording a 1.41 GAA with six shutouts.
In 2000, the Galaxy sent him on loan to the Orange County Waves for seven games.
On January 17, 2003, Reis was traded to the New England Revolution in exchange for Alex Pineda Chacón and a second-round pick in the 2003 MLS SuperDraft.
Reis made his Revolution debut on July 19, 2003, starting in a 3-1 loss to the Chicago Fire.
Although signed by the Revolution as backup to Adin Brown, Reis became the club's starer in 2004 after Brown was sidelined with injuries. Reis is widely considered one of the best goalkeepers in MLS during the 2000s. He was a finalist for the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Award in 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. In 2005, Reis received MLS All-Star honors. He was also named Revolution Humanitarian of the Year. He again received MLS All-Star honors in 2006, 2007, and 2008.
In 2004, Reis was named Revolution Defender of the Year. On October 31, he became the first goalie in MLS history to stop two penalty kicks in one playoff game, doing as the Revs upset the much-favored Columbus Crew.
