As we get used to the of the small Peruvian #9 no longer leading the attack for the green, blue and white in Lumen Field. We all look back at his career and remember his greatest and worst moment maybe we could go more in detail. And let's see what teams he did best or the worst against. To give us more reasons and memories to appreciate his greatness by.
To start the list we see a very familiar foe. In 17 matches against the cringe Portland Timbers he's scored a impressive 10 times along with 4 assists which also makes it the team he's assisted the most against. He really embraced that derby atmosphere and used it to help him play better than he usually does! Perhaps growing up in that South American soccer culture where derby matches are treated with such passion and importance helped to internalize it in a helpful way! And to further emphasize that point the next club is 1 of our other rival clubs, the San Jose Earthquakes! With a even more impressive 9 goals in only 12 matches!
And the next club actually ties it for both the amount of goals and assists plus games too! That club being the LA Galaxy with 9 goals and 2 assists in 12 games. With it again showing his ability to come up in big games showing up so much when facing the MLS's biggest clubs. His 2 assists against both clubs also tie for the clubs he has the 2nd most assists against too.
As for the clubs he has the least goals against (minimum 5 games) Raúl Ruidíaz struggled the most against was Real Salt Lake. As in 7 games not only did he only ever score 1 goal against them but had no assists either. Next up with only 2 goals in 8 games is LA Galaxy's exactly opposite LAFC which he also has no assists against them. And lastly barely squeaking in with only 5 games played against them is Sporting Kansas City which in those 5 games he has 2 goals against them with no assists again. Which honestly isn't too bad. And these are also the clubs he has the least assists against. What a amazing career I'll really miss him playing for the RAVE green thanks a bunch for reading!
