Rocco Rios-Novo (5/10):

Brilliant first half, painful second. Novo made some critical point-blank saves in the opening 45 minutes as Vancouver chased the game, but let Ali Ahmed’s chance slip through his fingertips on a must-save chance. 

Ian Fray (8/10):

Far and away, Inter Miami’s best defender on the day, with x defensive contributions. He largely kept Ahmed and Muller at bay at times, but he’ll rue his positioning on the goal Miami conceded. 

Noah Allen (6/10):

Largely quiet outing for the usually effective Herons’ defender. He did make some key clearances, though, especially with Vancouver having the lion’s share of possession. 

Sergio Busquets (5/10):

Outside of a brilliant pullback move in the first half, he was more of a liability playing at center back than he was an asset. Struggled to be his accurate best when it came to what he does best, too, connecting on a low by his standards at 78 percent. 

Maximiliano Falcon (6/10):

Erratic, but weirdly effective at the same time. Falcon channeled his inner David Luiz, at times reckless with his positioning, but also winning the ball at key moments up the pitch as Miami struggled to retain possession. 

Jordi Alba (4/10):

Was tormented multiple times by Emmanuel Sabbi,  with the Spaniard not able to stay in front of the pacey American winger. With Alba having to constantly play catch-up, it likely played a factor in his ineffectiveness on the other end of the pitch. He was abnormally inaccurate with his passing, connecting on just 78 percent of his attempts and didn’t create a single chance. Not a memorable game for arguably the best attacking left back in football history.Â
