Real Salt Lake overcomes defensive lapse

Awesome. | 7:06 a.m. Nov. 6, 2009

Just awesome.

Now...who do we have a better shot against? Chicago or New England?

My guess is that we would pair up better vs the Revs.

I don't know how playoff scheduling goes, but does REAL get a home game in the next round or does it mean they just play one game on the road against New England or Chicago?

Beltran gets the nod if he's healthy, no question. He's had a really solid year and deserves to start.

its appropriate that russel is the focus of the defensive lapse. what happenned to beltran? the best defense is a great offense.

Defensive Lapse?? | 8:12 a.m. Nov. 6, 2009

Ok, so the gaffe by Robbie Russell was pretty bad. But when I clicked on the link to read this story, the link/headline read "Defensive Lapse." Really? After a game where RSL scored three unanswered goals on the road, in playoffs, against the reigning champions and the #1 team in MLS . . . and all the copywriters as the Des News can muster up is "Defensive Lapse"? Wow. Now to the Trib. . .

i would prefer to play chicago but thats just me.

first 3 game win streak in rsl history comes at the perfect time. lets make it 5..

Russell Struggled | 8:26 a.m. Nov. 6, 2009

I was surprised to see Jason leave him in the game.

Way to come back from 0-2. Not sure we have ever done that.

I would rather play New England.

No, we won't play anymore games at Rio Tinto, unfortunately.

todd to kw | 8:35 a.m. Nov. 6, 2009

it is 1 game winner take all on the road, we are the #8 seed

I would rather see 2 game aggregate but oh well

Lets go New England! If RSL shut Nyassi, Larenowitz, and Joseph (which they can do) it's off to Seattle. RSL has to keep shooting, Matt Reise is a great keeper, however the if RSL keeps shooting a couple are going to go in! Beltran should start for sure!

Either way | 3:36 p.m. Nov. 6, 2009

We looked good last night.
