Real Salt Lake: Lennon, Saucedo serves as prime examples of seizing an opportunity

Lennon and Saucedo replaced Joao Plata and Jordan Allen after the incumbents went down with injuries in back-to-back weeks. Both Plata and Allen returned to training Tuesday and appear on track to be available for RSL's inaugural match against expansion franchise Minnesota United on the road Saturday.

Should Plata and Allen be available, Shore said, the staff has "some tough decisions moving onto the weekend." Lennon, on loan from Liverpool FC this year, and Saucedo, who grew up in Park City, have provided RSL with more width in their attack and provided more scoring opportunities for center forward Yura Movsisyan.
