This season, we're rolling out RuiTweets - thoughts from Sporting Kansas City's Statistical Analytics guy Rui Xu. Every Monday, we'll pick Rui's brain to provide a stat from Sporting Kansas City's weekend match.
And FYI, Rui is pronounced RE. It works.
This week's #RuiTweet:
In the attacking third, Philadelphia completed 24 out of 61 passes. Sporting Kansas City completed 42 out of 67. That's a pretty huge difference.
Philadelphia Union (green = successful, red = unsuccessful)
Sporting Kansas City (successful = outlined, unsuccessful = filled in)
