ORLANDO, FL - Real Salt Lake is set to continue its MLS is Back Tournament run when it takes on Minnesota United FC on Friday, July 17 in its second match of the group stage. Kickoff is set for 8:30p MT from the ESPN Wide world of Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida with the match being broadcast nationally on ESPN and locally on ESPN700 radio.
