Real Salt Lake vs Columbus Crew
Real Salt Lake managed to close the campaign in June with maximum points. They want the report card to open a campaign this month when visited by the Columbus Crew this weekend. Two camps met on Thursday (4/7) at Rio Tinto Stadium.
Sunday (30/6) then Real Salt Lake also played the role of host when entertaining Sporting Kansas City. In that match they managed to win with a net score of 2-0, all of which were scored by Sam Johnson in the first round.
On the contrary, the Columbus Crew must be willing to lose points at home when visited by Orlando City on the same day; they lost 0-2 after allowing Christopher Mueller and Tesho Akindele to score for the visitors.
With that result, the Columbus Crew means that only reap 1 point for the last 6 parties, that is when playing draw with New York City. It was this crisis that made them languish in the bottom, now in the order of 23 aka right above the bottom of the standings.
In fact, yesterday’s final party helped Real Salt Lake record 5 wins from 7 home games this season. In fact, they have scored 8 goals and conceded just 1 time in the last 3 matches.
With such a contrasting report card, Real Salt Lake is predicted to win tomorrow’s match. However, they must be wary of Columbus Crew’s surprise after the last two clashes at Rio Tinto were successfully held to a draw with an identical score, 2-2.
