Timeline
Nicholas Paul Rimando (born June 17, 1979) is an American former professional soccer player who last played as a goalkeeper for Real Salt Lake in Major League Soccer and the United States national team.
He holds the Major League Soccer records for career wins, clean sheets, saves, and overall appearances.
Rimando was born in Montclair, California and attended Montclair High School.
He played two years of college soccer at UCLA.
As a freshman in 1997, he tended goal as the Bruins won the College Cup; after his sophomore year, he signed a Project-40 contract with MLS.
Rimando was selected 35th in the third round of the 2000 MLS SuperDraft by the Miami Fusion, and quickly took the starting position from Jeff Cassar, starting 22 games as a rookie.
For his efforts, he was named MLS Cup MVP, only the second goalkeeper to earn the honor (Tony Meola accomplished the feat in 2000).
He started 25 games the following season, helping the Fusion to win the 2001 MLS Supporters' Shield.
When the Fusion were contracted after the 2001 season, Rimando was selected third overall by D.C. United (his coach at Miami, Ray Hudson, was the new United boss) in the subsequent Allocation Draft.
For DC, Rimando played in every game in 2002 and in 25 games in 2003 until he missed the end of the season with an injury.
In 2004, with Hudson gone, he lost his starting job to Troy Perkins, but regained it for the stretch run, backstopping DC to the MLS Cup.
In 2005, he regained his everyday starter status, but was beaten out by Perkins again in 2006, playing only two games during the whole season.
On December 11, 2006, Rimando was traded along with Freddy Adu to Real Salt Lake.
He was then traded to New York Red Bulls on February 9, only to be traded back to Real Salt Lake on February 23 following the sudden retirement of the latter team's first-choice keeper Scott Garlick.
Rimando was RSL's first-choice keeper during the 2007 season.
His team struggled constantly and never seriously contended for a playoff berth, but Rimando led MLS with 146 saves in 27 games, including efforts against New England (13 saves in a 0-0 draw on June 2) and Toronto FC (12 saves in a 0-0 draw on September 15).
His hard work was rewarded at the end of the season when he was named Real Salt Lake's 2007 Most Valuable Player.
Rimando continued as Salt Lake's first-choice keeper in 2008 and 2009.
He emerged as one of the top keepers in the league, as evidenced by his MLS Player of the Month award in July 2008.
His strong performance between the pipes, combined with his team's much-improved defensive play, carried the team to Western Conference Final in 2008 and even further in 2009.
In the Eastern Conference Final against the Chicago Fire, RSL battled to a scoreless draw after 120 minutes.
Rimando made several saves in regulation and overtime, then added three saves on penalty kicks, lifting his team to a 5-4 shootout victory.
In the MLS Cup championship match, Rimando again found himself facing a shootout, and again he delivered.
He made three saves, leading RSL to a victory over the Los Angeles Galaxy.
In 2010, RSL emerged as possibly the greatest defensive team in the history of Major League Soccer.
With Rimando as goalkeeper, Salt Lake set an MLS record for fewest goals allowed in a single season - just 20 in 30 matches.
Rimando also set club records for most shutouts in a single season (14) and longest shutout streak (568 minutes).
Additionally, the team set a league record for highest goal differential (+25), but they were upset by FC Dallas in the first round of the playoffs and couldn't defend their MLS Cup title from the previous season.
Despite his stellar season - one of the greatest ever by a keeper in American professional soccer - Rimando did not receive the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year award.
Instead, it was given to Donovan Ricketts of the L.A. Galaxy, which caused some controversy around the league.
On February 4, 2011, Rimando signed a contract extension with RSL that kept him with the club through the 2013 season.
On March 3, 2013, Rimando became the 2nd MLS goalkeeper to earn 100 shutouts after a 2-0 win over the San Jose Earthquakes.
In December 2013, Real Salt Lake and Rimando traveled to Sporting Park in Kansas City, Kansas to face Sporting Kansas City for the MLS Championship Game.
Rimando played well despite 10 degree temperatures.
He made four major saves in the game.
His third save was perhaps the best.
Graham Zusi shot a high half volley, but Rimando tipped it over the crossbar.
The game went on to penalty kicks after a 1-1 draw.
Rimando saved a penalty kick from Matt Besler, but Real Salt Lake lost in sudden death.
On August 9, 2014, playing at home against his former club, D.C. United, Rimando secured the lead in career shutouts for an MLS goalkeeper in a 3-0 win.
