Tucson, Ariz. • Adam Henley cut one way, then the other, taking touches around Sebastian Lletget that sent him to the ground as he missed a tackle.
Henley was the only non-returner who started for RSL in its first preseason match against another MLS team Saturday afternoon, which ended in a 3-1 win over the Los Angeles Galaxy. The right back, formerly of England’s Blackburn Rovers, signed this winter as a replacement for injured Tony Beltran.
As Petke predicted, the English game translated well for Henley, who played solid defense while also remaining heavily involved in the attack.
