I feel rejoice with all my new Real Salt Lake friends and family. I wish could be with you all partying baby..

Incredibly proud of our warriors and heroes... We came out and attacked. Russell and Espindola gave away the ball twice early and could have cost us but did not. You ave to give it up to Scheloto. However, one of the 2 he scored, what a terrible turnover from Russell.

Nonetheless, we could have quit bit did not. Morales what a goal and what a set up. Robbie tying on a good penalty call. How about Andy Williams what an end of the season! Kyle helped with the distraction acting like a screen. Columbus was getting frustrated and we did an excellent job not only holding the lead but not sitting on it. Yura came close with a great shot wide left. The Olaye missed a sitter. Still this proved the best form of defense.

Nickie made 2 excellent saves to preserve the lead but we owned them.

Credit tonight for getting to the semis to the whole squad, Olaye was everywhere playing physically Beckerman outstanding, all of them...

Lets hope this spurs our Jazz and Sloan

3-2?

I hope Columbus didn't go away with hurt feelings.

A tie would have been a much more compassionate demonstration of futbol.

Real SL is for real!

What a great example of heart and never-say-die guts!Congratulations!

Not really a soccer fan

but way excited for the local team to advance! Go RSL!

Doubter

considering rsl's dismal road record, I didn't have high hopes going into this game. I was afraid that rsl would just try to sit back to protect the aggregate lead, and that columbus would eventually pound the ball in. To come back and win after such a horrible start was impressive. Great game, great win. Keep it up next week!

#8 takes down #1! I'm Salt Lake 'til I die!

Amazing Game

Huge props to RSL for not giving in after Columbus scored 2.

We did it & we did it the right way! Nice effort by everyone. I'd give EVERYONE a player rating of 7 or higher. 2009 MLS Cup Champs RSL? Why not us? Why not now?

Thank you ReAL for shutting up ALL the sports commentators that didn't believe it could happen! Now give credit where credit is due! We came in as underdogs, even though we had the one goal advantage, we went down an aggregate goal, and we still one by TWO aggregate goals! Our season road record is no longer a stat that the commentators can dwell on! HECK YEAH!

Season tickets

Wish I would have been there... Great game, I was on the edge of my couch throughout the whole game! Outstanding performances from everybody.

Who do you think we have a better chance with next? Chicago or New England?

YYYEEESSS!!! That was the most stressful 90 minutes of soccer I've watched, but what a reward! Thanks for never saying die RSL, I hope you've proved to yourselves you can win on the road, in the toughest environment against a class team. Keep it up, only two more to go!!! Glory Real!!!

Way too early to say we are in the finals. We will have to play in Chicago or on the dismal handball turf of New England first. I was amazed at the comeback, these guys have really pulled it together over the last 6 or 8 games. Andy has made a huge difference in this team and I think we finally found our starter/sub rotation.
I hate to nitpick, Rimando is so good on reaction saves that he still helped pull the game out for us, but when he has to make a save that requires stretching for the ball there just isn't enough of him. I wonder if a bigger keeper makes it to both of those goals. I hope we start to finally work Seitz in a little more next year. I don't know, it is hard to say, Rimando gets us through somehow.
Good to see Morales get something going and getting the team going late in the first half. Olave destroyed Moreno, and let Schelotto know he was there also. Hope we get Beltran back.
