RailHawks player ratings vs. AC St. Louis, 4/10/10

Posted by David Fellerath on Sun, Apr 11, 2010 at 9:29 AM

Disagree? Let us know...

Barbara — 9 (two opportunities brilliantly exploited; impressive technical ability; held up well with effective and creative distribution of ball; clearly a top-notch striker for this level)
Gardner — 7 (effective all over the pitch; excellent work rate; created opportunities; had a goal disallowed)
Paladini — 5 (seemed to struggle in a less central role; weak spot kicks and shots)
Kabwe — 6 (had a couple of strong runs at goal; took heavy touches, made heavy passes)
Elenio — 7 (perfect cross to Etienne for second goal; skillful and crafty; seemed to tire in second half)
Lowery — 6 (more adventurous than last year; lost more 50/50 balls than usual)
Shields — 7 (His return brought much-needed stability to right back after unsteady preseason at that position.)
Schulte — 7 (Captain clean sheet)
Bobo — 6 (Was it his man who got the header in the 28th minute? [Ed. 4/12: Just looked at the video. Lowery and Gilkerson were the closest to the unmarked John Lesko.])
Gilkerson — 8 (Probably his most impressive game as a RailHawk; his run from the back set up the second goal; ventured forward played a wonderful long ball from the back to Barbara and; was somewhat better at taking care of the ball.)
Reed — 8 (Other than the 28th minute header, not severely threatened. But came off his line with authority to claim a couple of crosses)

We thought about rating the subs (Watson, Budnyy, Davidson) but they all came in pretty late. We didn't see enough of them to feel comfortable with an assessment.
