The United Soccer League affiliate of Real Salt Lake is in the midst of a playoff run that will culminate Sunday on the road against Louisville City FC for the league title. Should they prevail, it will the the first championship in Monarchs history, and the first in the RSL organization as a whole since the 2009 MLS Cup.
The Monarchs are well aware of what’s at stake. And they’re well aware that they will have to put together a performance similar to what they did on the road against the Phoenix Rising, the top team in the Western Conference in the regular season.
