Sean Johnson: The best goalkeeper in the playoffs is underestimated again

FotMob didn’t think much of the quality of play in yesterday's Eastern Conference Semifinal matchup between New York City FC and CF Montréal. No player in the NYCFC win earned a rating of 8 or higher, never mind the god-like 9.1 bestowed on Maxi Moralez in last Monday’s win over Inter Miami.

Instead, the football soccer analysis website and app handed out a few ratings of 7.9, and gave Player of the Match honors to Montréal midfielder Alistair Johnston even though he didn’t score, didn’t register an assist, and was on the losing side of the 1-3 scoreline.
