FC Dallas flew up to Utah to face a struggling Mike Petke and Real Salt Lake. This was also a special reunion for former RSL player, and current FC Dallas midfielder, Javier Morales. He spent the last decade at Rio Tinto, and was (and still is) a fan favorite with the RSL community, and was honored before the match. Although Javi Mo did not play, there is plenty to talk about in this exciting 3-0 win.

The return to 4-4-2

The last several weeks Oscar Pareja has opted for a 4-2-3-1 with Tesho Akindele, Javier Morales, and Roland Lamah as the three attacking midfielders.
