Nashville SC dismantled Orlando City SC 5-1 Saturday night at Geodis Park. It was a much needed win for the Music City side after a three game losing streak.
Let's dig into some ratings!
Ben Wright
• Players begin with a base grade of 6 and can increase or decrease their rating based on performance.
• Players must play a minimum of 15 minutes to earn a rating.
Joe Willis - 7.5
There wasn't much for Joe Willis to do for most of the game, but he was there when called upon. The blame for Orlando's goal doesn't fall on him, especially considering the space Luis Muriel was given.
Stock: Unchanged
Josh Bauer - 8.5
Josh Bauer showed again that he is a solid replacement in any position at the back. He is organized defensively and fairly effective going forward, he also doesn't get enough credit for his technical ability. Two assists, including a long throw-in, bump up his rating!
Stock: Up
