Meram rescues RSL in dramatic 2-1 turnaround in Dallas with Kreilach, Rusnak goals

Real Salt Lake rescued a victory late against FC Dallas in dramatic fashion, with Albert Rusnak and Damir Kreilach scoring second-half goals for a 2-1 victory.

FC Dallas opened the scoring in the 20th minute, with defender Matt Hedges capitalizing on a very poor showing from David Ochoa to head a looping ball into the back of the net.

It was an inauspicious start to the match, especially given it followed a 1-0 loss to Chicago Fire. The first half continued in that vein, with RSL riding their luck throughout. Fortunately for the visitors, Dallas’s finishing was entirely suspect, and Dallas took the 1-0 lead into the locker room.
