DC United vs Real Salt Lake Preview

Real Salt Lake form (DLWL): RSL's record away from Rice Eccles is 0-2 coming into this game. RSL came from a very disappointing first half against Toronto FC. Kreis said, "I think we came out tactically and played that game a little bit wrong, to be honest." RSL did come out in the second half which a better approach to the game, and reversed the roles of this game. However, Toronto was the only team with a goal in the end.

The Crash after the Rise

Well, once again I was fooled at the thoughts of Real Salt Lake turning the corner. I predicted a 3-1 win for RSL, and was very disappointed in the first 45. Toronto dominated possession, while we were lucky to hold the ball for 10 seconds. Our lack of wide play, let Toronto play compact defense, and letting Wynne shoot up the wings with no worry about us getting in behind wing. I think we are missing outside presence for our game. However, I do like this type of play at Rice Eccles.
