Brian Schwake - 6.0
Brian Schwake didn't have much to do before Philadelphia's goal, which he couldn't have done much about. A couple of awkward moments throughout the match, but nothing too detrimental.
Stock: Unchanged
Brian Schwake becomes the first Nashville SC player to win his first four starts for the club (all in the Open Cup). #EveryoneN

Andy Nájar - 7.0
The Honduran was lively throughout the match and pushed himself to the limit physically. He had a couple of shaky defensive moments, but he was able to recover fairly quickly.
