Atlanta United 2-0 Portland Timbers: Community Player Ratings

This is where I usually type a little lede that sounds kind of official and proper and all that jazz. Listen, I’m running on 3 hours of sleep. We won the freaking MLS Cup for the love of god. All of you who didn’t give all 10s are cops first of all. Secondly, the overall return on this poll was actually somewhat low, probably a good sign that everybody was out celebrating the win.

Man of the Match: Josef Martinez

The golden boot winner, the league MVP, the MLS Cup MVP, the MLS record goalscorer, the player who scored the opening goal in Saturday’s final was your match MVP. Real shocker there, y’all. SHoutout to Brad Guzan, who finished with the second-highest rating. Good job Brad.
