Real Salt Lake vs. Herediano report card
Sebastian Velasquez was subbed on for Will Johnson in the 73rd minute as an attacking option and made several super runs into the box, but Tuesday was not a Real night and the feisty midfielder let his frustration get the better of him, earning a yellow card caution in the 89th minute.

Your grades are a bit too high. Giving everybody except Schuler and Gil an A means that everybody besides those two was perfect. So you're saying 9 of the 11 players on the field couldn't have played any better, even though it was a 0-0 draw with an overmatched opponent? That sure doesn't give us much hope for the playoffs, does it?
Or think of it this way: RSL took a ton of shots (16) and scored zero goals, and yet you still gave the strikers an A and an A-. Giving them those grades based on things like possession, work rate, linking with the midfield, and other soccer media buzzwords shows that you're overthinking this a bit. Those are nice things, but at the end of the day strikers are there to score goals. Neither of them did that. Espindola deserves a B, Paulo a C+.
