Week 20 in Major League Soccer gave us a good idea of which clubs will be contenders over the final three months of the season.
The weekend slate of matches also gave us a preview of which stars will be dominating the headlines during the stretch run of the regular season.
Ignacio Piatti, Sacha Kljestan, Bradley Wright-Phillips, Didier Drogba and Sebastian Giovinco stood out the most for their respective performances in the Eastern Conference.
Wright-Phillips, Drogba and Giovinco all moved back into the Bleacher Report MLS Player Rankings thanks to their exploits on the pitch in Week 20, while Piatti and Kljestan continued their rise to the top.
