PHOENIX — With week four in the USL over, Phoenix Rising’s forward Rémi Cabral lands at number five in the USL Championship’s highest-rated players via Opta.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Despite losing on the road to Monterey Bay FC on Sunday, Cabral gave momentary life to Rising as he scored his second goal of the season in the 17th minute of the match to tie it 1-1. He and his fellow Frenchman, Ihsan Sacko, have been the focal point for Rising offensively. “Les deux Français” have been involved in five of the last seven of the club’s goals.
