It was a cold — but importantly not a snowy — night at Rio Tinto Stadium, and it was a match beset by defensive injuries (one before, one during.) But most importantly, it was a match Real Salt Lake managed to win over newly Western side Nashville SC, winning 2-1 on the back of a masterful Zac MacMath performance
- Goal, RSL 1-0 Nashville 6’ — Bobby Wood makes a smart near-post run on a corner kick, heading home the set piece from Justin Meram.
- 6’ Nashville threatens through Daniel Lovitz and Teal Bunbury, with the latter getting an excellent opportunity in the center of the box.
