Alexis Gutierrez

ANALYSIS
Gutierrez pulled a ball back from the goal line for Jose Raul Zuniga to push it into the net in the 26th minute of the game. That was the playmaker's first assist since Feb. 9, and it came in his second start for the Eagles after transferring from Cruz Azul in June. He also stood out as the team's main set piece taker against Necaxa. With Gutierrez operating as a central midfielder, there should be a tight race between him and Erick Sanchez for playing time at least when a formation like Saturday's 4-2-3-1 is used.
