Andrew Putna - 6.5 It’s pretty hard to argue with the amount of saves Putna made. Sure, not all of them were difficult, but a couple were and he helped earn the clean sheet after some criticism in his past couple of games.
Aaron Herrera - 6 Herrera nearly had a goal and was once again repeatedly in the mix on offense. His run of high-level form continues.
Justen Glad - 6.5 Glad showed some of his quickness in this game in some recovery defensive runs. He was sharp and make smart tactical fouls.
Nedum Onuoha - 6.5 Nedum did what you expect from your center back, he held down the fort and did not allow for nonsense around him.
Donny Toia - 7 This was the version of Toia we need to see every game. He was making save after save with some timely, smart play. It didn’t stop there either, he was also getting the best of LAFC’s defenders in the attack.
Pablo Ruiz - 5.5 Ruiz was effective in the defensive midfield role, but a little wide-eyed in his shot attempts.
Damir Kreilach - 7 That header was perfectly executed. For some reason, it seems that Kreilach is at his best against LAFC. No complaints here.
Justin Meram - 7 Meram got another start and had a good time out there. He was creative as ever and showed us just how comfortable he is under pressure, dancing around the defender to score a close-range goal.
Albert Rusnak - 6.5 Rusnak was in the right place a handful of times, but was unable to find the finishing touch in the run of play. However, Justen Glad earned a PK and Rusnak finished it cleanly and confidently.
Maikel Chang - 6.5 Chang knows how to make a precision pass, and proved it again finding Damir on the opening goal. At this pace he has a good chance to become RSL’s assist leader.
Corey Baird - 5.5 Baird’s speed and movement was giving LAFC problems, but Baird didn’t get any good looks at the goal.
Substitutes
Everton Luiz - 5.5 Luiz came on and locked things down defensively. He helped maintain possession as well with speed and skill.
Douglas Martinez Jr. - 5.5 Martinez was unable to get very involved on the offensive end, but he had a nice showing for himself on defense.
Kyle Beckerman - N/A
Jeizon Ramirez - N/A
Milan Iloski - N/A
