Five losers, one winner from RSL’s 2-1 loss to LA Galaxy

Well, this is gonna be fun.

Loser: Corey Baird

Did you know that Corey Baird played 90 minutes in this match? I wouldn’t have believed it myself if I hadn’t checked. A funny fact is that if you overlay Justen Glad’s passes on top of Corey Baird’s, it’s incredibly obvious that Glad did more, was more involved in the attack, and more dangerous. That’s weird. Glad was a right back.

Also, Baird did have a nice chipped shot that nearly went in, but a beautiful clearance by Giancarlo Gonzalez kept him off the sheet. It does go some way to show that Baird is a wholly unpredictable figure.
