I'll always remember the 2013 MLS Cup Final. Here in the UK, it was shown on Sky Sports at around 11pm and so I made sure I had everything in place to be able to watch the game. At about 2am, that last penalty was taken and heartbreak set in for all Real Salt Lake fans. I can't think of any moment in our history that was harder to take than the sight of Beckerman, Borchers and Rimando all comforting the other members of the squad as the SKC fans cheered on. It was at that moment it dawned on me (and probably the rest of us) that this was the last chance that the core we built a franchise on had to lift the MLS Cup.
