Let that sink in, Real Salt Lake and Major League Soccer fans. Rimando, who will likely go down as the greatest goalkeeper in the history of the league in any era, will never play another professional soccer game after Wednesday.
And even in his final game, he showed why he’s earned all the accolades he’s earned in his 20-year career. He made seven saves against the Sounders, which was a season high. At 40 years old, he’s still making saves like this. It’s unreal.
Rimando ends his career as the all-time leader in saves, shutouts, games played and shots faced.
