Michael Collodi - Seven saves in loss Collodi made seven saves and allowed three goals in Sunday's 3-0 defeat versus Vancouver Whitecaps FC.
Impact Collodi was absolutely overwhelmed during Sunday's loss. He faced 10 shots and stopped seven of them and still ended up on the wrong side of an ugly score. The goalkeeper will need to be incredible if Dallas want to pull off a shock round one upset over Vancouver. Collodi will hope to bounce back at home for game two of the opening round on Saturday.

Ramiro - Busy defensively Ramiro had two tackles (one won) and four clearances in Sunday's 3-0 defeat versus Vancouver Whitecaps FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 73rd minute.
Impact Benetti was stuck behind the ball throughout Sunday's loss, as Vancouver dominated the match from start-to-finish. Benetti made four clearances and a pair of tackles in a decent showing. With Vancouver controlling the match Benetti wasn't able to do much going forward. Dallas are going to have a single chance to keep their season alive at home against this same Vancouver team.

Yohei Takaoka - Easy clean sheet Takaoka had no saves and secured a clean sheet in Sunday's 3-0 victory versus FC Dallas.
Impact Takaoka didn't face any shots as his playoffs got off to a perfect start with a clean sheet and a 1-0 lead in the series. The goalkeeper had a brilliant regular season and if the defense in front of him can keep playing this well there's no reason he won't have upside throughout the MLS Cup playoffs.

Rayan Elloumi - Assists off bench Elloumi assisted once to go with zero corners and two chances created in Sunday's 3-0 win versus FC Dallas.
Impact Elloumi came off the bench for the final 24 minutes of Sunday's win and provided one assist on a pair of chances created. The attacker isn't likely to take a spot in the starting XI, but he still put together a solid cameo off the bench. Elloumi has scored twice and assisted once in eight appearances (two starts) since joining Vancouver.

Ali Ahmed - Assists in rout Ahmed assisted once to go with three shots (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and four chances created in Sunday's 3-0 victory over FC Dallas.
Impact Ahmed was brilliant off the wing during Sunday's win, he created four chances and earned an assist. The wide player could have had even more impact if the strikers ahead of him had finished better. Ahmed should be a huge part of the starting XI throughout the playoffs as long as he can stay fit. Ahmed can play on the wing or in midfield and occasionally even in the backline.
