I thought that Gregersen was the MOTM for me. He conceded the penalty obviously but I thought he looked defensively solid and I think Atlanta would have conceded more goals if it were not for him. Gregersen showed flashes of why they signed him with his speed and strength, I am excited to see how he progresses because he definitely made it hard for players such as Cucho and Rossi.
Thought Gregersen played well, stood up some guys single-handedly and the recovery speed is so necessary with Pineda’s high line. Reminds me of Van de Ven for Spurs. Thought Wiley had a toooough game, constantly chasing on defense and not offering anything going forward. Continue to think he’s a winger playing fullback.
I think Derrick Williams was also the one who didn't step up with the rest of the line and that allowed Farsi to be onside during his breakaway that lead to the penalty. Other than that I thought he was OK and should continue to be paired with Gregersen on the back line.
Ratings seem pretty fair. After a poor season, the keeper was probably our best player on the day....which isn't often a positive statement.
I would also grade Pineda a 5. He was slow to make the proper adjustments, but we did take control of the match in the second half and have a couple really good opportunities to get out of there with a less than deserved tie.
Looks like he is the favorite on the votes, but Guz is my MotM because his pen save is what turned the momentum of the game. Thankfully the team knew they had a new lease on life and played like it.

Saba, no two ways about it. He hustled his butt of all match long
No MOTM when you lose. It’s a team sport, when you lose as a team you are all losers.
