In less than 45 seconds Cristian Arango already fired up the fans with a one goal lead against Real Salt Lake. The immediate connection with Bryce Duke from outside the 18 caused a shake up in the Real Salt Lake defense.
26 minutes later Real Salt Lake reorganized themselves and managed to secure an equalizer that only lasted 2 minutes before Arango put LAFC back to the top.
Going back and forth with missed opportunities from both sides, Anderson Julio finally got a pocket to tie the game for Real Salt Lake 3 minutes after second half. The two teams seemed to put up a big show the entire time until Real Salt Late Toni Datkovic reset a play to the goalie David Ochoa which seemed to have been a miss-communication, leading to an own goal sealing the team’s fate at the Banc of California.
The game ended in a 3-2 in favor of LAFC.
