CenturyLink Man of the Match @ New York Red Bulls: Sal Zizzo

MOTM @ NYRB, Zizzo, 8.21.12

Sal Zizzo has had a busy week while on the road with the Portland Timbers. A goal against Toronto FC won him the CenturyLink Man of the Match last week.

He followed that up with a two assist performance in a spirited 3-2 loss against the New York Red Bulls. Displaying breakneck speed up and down the pitch, Zizzo easily beat New York defender Roy Miller on numerous occasions and presented great vision on both passes that led to fellow nominees Bright Dike and Darlington Nagbe’s goals in the game.

And with a runaway 67% of the vote, you all agreed. Sal Zizzo is your CenturyLink Man of the Match--his second in as many games.

Sal Zizzo - 67%
Bright Dike - 21%
Diego Chara - 5%
Darlington Nagbe - 4%
Steven Smith - 2.5%
Jack Jewsbury - 0.5%
