URFC v. Red Stars, Player of the Match: Katrina Gorry

It was not a good night for Utah Royals FC, but there were several bright-spots. From the TV, Katrina Gorry was the most high intensity player for Utah Royals FC, and the stat sheet seems to confirm that. Playing all 90 minutes, she led the Royals in shot attempts with five, landed six tackles, an impressive number for an attacking midfielder, and additionally won a foul.

Other Contenders

Becky Sauerbrunn - I don’t think that there is a game this season where the captain has failed to be among the top performers for her team. In this one, she created two chances, a rather high number for a centerback, while also making three tackles in addition to several important clearances.

Rebecca Moros - The defender had a game high for both teams in terms of touches on the ball at 95 and tied Katrina Gorry for the game high in terms of tackles with six. That stated, passing accuracy could be improved upon as Moros completed only 62% of her passing attempts.

Brittany Ratcliffe - In her 70 minutes, Ratcliffe led the team in passing accuracy with 83% accuracy and also drew three fouls.
