Real Salt Lake News Release


SANDY, Utah - Following a heartbreaking U.S. Open Cup Semifinal loss at Houston Wednesday, Real Salt Lake (10-7-7, 37 pts, 3rd West) resumes its 2023 MLS campaign Saturday at home against the very same Dynamo this Saturday, August 26, at America First Field in Sandy (7:30p MT; limited tickets available for the standing-room only contest at www.RSL.com/tickets).

Despite Wednesday's Open Cup loss, RSL welcomes Houston to Utah with an active 11-game MLS unbeaten run over the Dynamo, RSL last loss in reg. season play coming in 2017. The Utah side also owns an active eight-game road unbeaten streak in MLS action, the Claret-and-Cobalt last dropping a road decision in League play back on April 15 at Dallas. RSL has now suffered three losses in its last four matches - all in Leagues Cup or Open Cup play - with no setbacks in MLS action since May 31. The back-to-back Leagues Cup and Open Cup losses at LAFC August 8 and at Houston Wednesday mark just the sixth time in Head Coach Pablo Mastroeni's 87 matches at the helm that the team has dropped consecutive matches, and the first time since March 25/April 1 of this season.

Saturday's kickoff against Houston starts at 7:30p MT on Apple TV+ / MLS Season Pass w/ Max Bretos and Brian Dunseth (ENG), and Francisco X. Rivera & Diego Arrioja (SPN).
