Real Salt Lake: Findley scores 3 as RSL blows out Crew

Great game RSL! It's a shame more people didn't show up to support the team. It was one of the best games RSL has played in the four seasons I've watched. Let's keep the winning ways going strong in Utah by showing up in the droves for the April 11th game vs DC United!

The weather was actually quite good once the wind died down after the first few minutes...For those of us under cover the entire game was quite pleasant...And as for the soccer, an excellent game and a crucial win to help break the early season hoodoo that has surrounded this club. Schellotto didn't have much support but even so I think it was evident that he was deserving of the MVP last year and our respect...the man has skill...Fortunately for us Hejduk was not with the squad. Findley would have had a harder time getting around Frankie...

wow he looked amazing. Dominated columbus back line with his speed. Although one of his goals was pretty dang lucky

I think the mls is getting better.. With the economy being the way it is i didn't really expect to see very many people there. But man it was honestly the best game i have seen all year. Waaay better than the jazz games i've been to this year. And yes the jazz have many empty seats also. But will they fold? probably not. Will ReAl fold? Probably not. It's hard for the mls to get a lot of fans early in the year because of the nba, ncaa's ect. ect.
POINT IS
rsl is not going anywhere and we have a dang good team now.(well at least at home)

mls is getting faster

I wish i would have gone to the stadium for the game. Great rebound from the week before.

Findley is looking poised to get a showing with the national team. The best goal for me was findleys third off the cross from yura, perfect cross and a nicely placed header. These two are looking potent. If they can stay healthy we will be in the race of the supporters shield i think. Mathis is looking a lot better this year also. 12,000 fans is a little low for rsl but it was their first game, attendance will go up as the year goes on.

Just real quick let me give a shout out to the soccer haters who click on our stories and post on them making rsl get more coverage in the future!

GOT DOMINATED!

NEXT! (dc united) NEXT!

will fail. I give this team one more year. people like this have been saying this for about 10 years now. GUESS WHAT?????? The league and rsl are still here. And ya we have an AMAZiNG TEAM. FINDLEY IS FINALLY LIVING UP to all the HYPE! New stadium is rockin.. Member that story about rsl achieving staying power last year in the DN?? I do and they know what their talkin about. Columbus? wow we destroyed you

Weeknight. Had work at 6 a.m. the next day.
Mathis is still on the team doing nothing but shouting orders like he is captain and crying to the ref like he is captain when he isn't.
Tickets prices are too high.
Go RSL. This is the year to do it. Glad to see Robbie come out of his shell. The kid is amazing.

obviously your a woman who holds grudges to the day she will die. And you obviously didnt watch the game at all. Mathis isnt a workhorse like Johnson is but he definitely helps the team with his deft one touch and pinpoint passing.

Soccer is boring. I would have more fun watching C-SPAN. I would have a better time staring at a clock for 3 hours. Here is a soccer game squeezed into a sentence: run around, run around, kick the ball, run around, tie!

RSL looked good on TV

Way to be!!! That was a highly entertaining match and the 12,000 that were there made it feel like a full house. We'll be there in Section 26 always supporting, no matter the weather.

I had work at 530 and still made the game, and Mathis didn't look that bad, he hussled, his touch was a little off, but he hussled, so I wouldn't make judgement for someone and you didn't even go to the game.

My family and I were all sick and couldn't attend last night, so I'm watching the game on rslfm (a web site that broadcasts the game stream). The guys that were posting in the chat room portion of the sight were disappointed at the turn-out for the game. So I write in and call them out saying that if their butt isn't in the seat they can't complain about the croud.
This guy posts back and sais "Uh, settle down dood, I'm in Portland! Not much of a chance I'll be able to make it."
I guess I forgot about the miracle of the world wide web.

Get off Mathis! Actually he played a very sound game. The control, and his vision to dump passes to the forwards is what we need, and he has it. I am very impressed to see that Findley played so well. Imagine he scored half of what he scored all last year! I am excited to see what more can happen with Salt Lake this year. Not just at home but on the road. I will see all of you great supporters April 11th!

Somebody needs to figure out the parking situation. We had to park over a mile away and were forced to walk past hundreds of empty parking spaces at the convention center and Jordan Commons because they weren't letting anyone going to the game park there. I thought they had parking figured out!

Fun game, fun win, totally dominant. Way to go Robbie Findley!
Where's that Columbus fan from yesterday that said we have no chance? Hellloooo? (echo...) ..silence...
You got OWNED Columbus!
