Hot off seven wins in a row across all competitions, Minnesota United came into Rio Tinto Stadium to face Real Salt Lake brimming with confidence but also lacking some key pieces — both captain Osvaldo Alonso and forward Angelo Rodriguez would miss the game due to injury. With Hassani Dotson and Mason Toye filling in ably, the Loons played Real Salt Lake to a standstill, striking first in the second half before conceding and then almost coming back on a long shot from midfielder Jan Gregus that struck the woodwork in the 88th minute. In the end, each team would leave with a point in the 1-1 draw, a perhaps disappointing but ultimately fair and valuable result for a Minnesota team working to keep its position in the playoff picture.
