2. Mauricio Pereyra

This is El Maestro at his finest. Orlando's captain was creative and wonderful on the ball most of this game. He had one fantastic cross-field switch to create an attack in the first half, then a fantastic through ball to Ruan that created the opening goal. Those were the standout moments of Pereyra's day for me, and that didn't even include his primary assist on the Benji Michel goal. Pereyra is a true No. 10 and when the team around him flows like it did Sunday, he'll create tons of dangerous moments.
