CHIVAS USA vs REAL SALT LAKE THE HOME DEPOT CENTER, Carson, Calif. 7:30 p.m. PT (FOX Soccer/Deportes; TSN2) August 27, 2011 (WEEK 24; MLS Game 241)

Chivas USA and Real Salt Lake renew their rivalry founded in 2005 when the clubs face off for a second time this season Saturday at The Home Depot Center. Chivas USA are playing at home for the first time in a month, a 1-0 loss at Portland on Wednesday ending a five-game road swing. Real are coming off back-to-back losses for a second time in short order, last a gutting 3-2 loss at Houston last weekend. REFEREE: Kevin Stott.

Will Johnson scored the game’s only goal in the 87th minute to lead Real Salt Lake to victory in the first meeting with Chivas this season, May 7 at Rio Tinto Stadium.

After failing to come away from The Home Depot Center with a victory against Chivas USA in their first seven visits all-time, Real have won two of the last three trips to Carson to face Chivas, including the 2-1 win last year.

Chivas USA have never won at Rio Tinto Stadium, including a loss in the 2008 MLS Cup Playoffs. Coaches record: Robin Fraser vs. RSL: P1 W0 L1 D0 … Jason Kreis v CHV: P13 W6 L5 D2

LAST MEETING 5/7: RSL 1, CHV 0 (Johnson 87)

Chivas USA were two men short before the first half was over. Andrew Boyens was booked first in the 15th minute -- a play RSL claimed should have been a red card -- then again in the 28th minute, to earn his marching orders.

Then disaster struck in the 38th minute, when RSL playmaker Javier Morales was taken down from behind by Chivas striker Marcos Mondaini. Morales suffered a fracture of the left ankle on the play, and referee Paul Ward showed the Chivas man a straight red card.

RSL was not able to take advantage until the 87th minute. Collen Warner sent in a bouncing cross from the left and it was flicked on in the goalmouth by Nat Borchers, finding Will Johnson at the back post, who bundled it home from close range.

REAL SALT LAKE (4-3-1-2): Nick Rimando – Robbie Russell (Arturo Alvarez 54), Nat Borchers, Jamison Olave, Chris Wingert - Ned Grabavoy, Kyle Beckerman, Will Johnson - Javier Morales (Andy Williams 45) - Fabian Espindola (Collen Warner 65), Alvaro Saborio.

CHIVAS USA (4-1-3-2): Dan Kennedy - Zarek Valentin, Heath Pearce, Andrew Boyens (sent off 25), Ante Jazic - Simon Elliott - Ben Zemanski, Nick LaBrocca (Francisco Mendoza 88), Jorge Flores (Justin Braun 57) - Marcos Mondaini (sent off 38), Alejandro Moreno (Mariano Trujillo 73).

CHIVAS USA Chivas USA saw their three-game unbeaten streak and five-game road swing come to an end, falling to a 1-0 loss to the Portland Timbers on Wednesday evening at Jeld-Wen Field. Chivas USA have 31 points from 26 games on the season, now in seventh place in the Western Conference.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

LAST MATCH The game's lone goal came a minute before the halftime break. Eric Brunner rose above Chivas defender

Heath Pearce to meet a Mike Chabala corner kick perfectly at the near post, driving his header past Chivas USA goalkeeper Dan Kennedy inside the back stick.

Chivas USA head coach Robin Fraser made five changes to the team that played to a 2-2 draw with the Colorado Rapids on Saturday evening at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. Michael Lahoud came in for Zarek Valentin in the back, Paulo Nagamura, Ben Zemanski and Laurent Courtois replaced Blair Gavin, Simon Elliott and Jorge Flores in midfield, and Marcos Mondaini started up top for Juan Pablo Angel.

CHIVAS USA (4-1-3-2): Dan Kennedy - Michael Lahoud (Mariano Trujillo 11), Heath Pearce, Michael Umana, Ante Jazic - Paulo Nagamura (Simon Elliott 38) - Ben Zemanski (Justin Braun 60), Nick LaBrocca, Laurent Courtois - Marcos Mondaini, Alejandro Moreno.

TEAM NEWS Chivas USA now return home after taking five of a possible 15 points on their five-game road swing. Beginning

with the RSL game, six of Chivas USA’s final eight games are at The Home Depot Center – including a “road” game with the LA Galaxy.

“You always want to get more points,” said Chivas USA head coach Robin Fraser. “Regardless of whether you’re at home or on the road, you want to get three points and we just feel like we didn’t get enough points and obviously, the standings will show that.”

After making his Chivas USA debut and scoring his first goal with the club the weekend before, Juan Pablo Ángel did not make the trip to Portland.

"We're looking to manage him with what is long-term for us the next nine games. The ability to keep him off the pounding of the turf, we felt would be the best thing for him in the long haul," Fraser said.

Making his first start in four matches, replacing the injured Zarek Valentin, Michael Lahoud lasted just 11 minutes before he had to come off for a substitution.

Then Paulo Nagamura, who was making his first start since July 2, also had to come off before halftime. "Absolutely injury-related. Michael Lahoud injured his ankle and Paulo Nagamura hurt his foot,” said Fraser.

“Both guys were absolutely struggling so it was something we had to do. That's three games in a row we've had to make early changes and tactically that alters your plan."

After missing the Colorado match entirely with an abdominal strain, Justin Braun came on for the final half-hour. "It was probably one of the biggest games of the year. It was a six-point swing – if we had won that we

would've been kind of clear of Portland so it's definitely very disappointing," Braun said. Chivas USA have scored eight goals in their last seven games. But they have been shut out four times in that

span, since July 16, alternating attacking clean sheets with multiple-goal outings. "We tried to be a little more aggressive. [In the first half] we came out flat and weren't able to move the ball the

way we wanted to. We just stepped the energy up in the second half and we were pushing for that goal. Unfortunately we didn't get it,” Braun said. “We've got to give credit to Portland for keeping the shutout, [and we] can't dwell on it too much. We have to put it behind us and just go into Saturday and try to get three points."

REAL SALT LAKE Real Salt Lake again went down to a second consecutive defeat, conceding a stoppage-time goal for a 3-2 loss to the Houston Dynamo on Saturday evening at Robertson Stadium. RSL sits in fifth place in the Western Conference, with 36 points from 23 matches. LAST MATCH

Real opened the scoring in the 28th minute. Fabian Espíndola latched on to a deflected pass and beat Houston goalkeeper Tally Hall to the far post with an angled shot from the right side of the area.

But the home side pulled even two minutes after the second-half restart. Carlo Costly laid a deft pass off to Davis at the top of the box, who fought through two defenders to square a ball to the Brian Ching, who then poked a shot out of goalkeeper Nick Rimando’s reach.

Yet on the hour, RSL again nosed in front. Luis Gil split defenders Hunter Freeman and Bobby Boswell to latch onto an Espíndola cross from the right flank and head home.

The Dynamo again evened terms nine minutes later. Brad Davis found Bobby Boswell at the near post on a corner kick, and the center back floated a curling header that landed inside the far-side netting.

Then in stoppage time, a cross was cleared out only as far as Alex Dixon on the right. He corralled the ball and cut onto his left foot, unleasing a sterling strike that sailed past Rimando's despairing dive inside the far post.

RSL coach Jason Kreis made three changes to the side that went down to a 1-0 defeat to Toronto FC at BMO Field. Tony Beltran came in at fullback for Chris Wingert, Collen Warner started for the suspended Will Johnson and Arturo Alvarez replaced Andy Williams.

REAL SALT LAKE (4-3-1-2): Nick Rimando - Robbie Russell, Chris Schuler, Nat Borchers, Tony Beltran - Collen Warner (Andy Williams 46), Kyle Beckerman, Arturo Alvarez (Jean Alexandre 85) - Luis Gil - Fabian Espindola (Paulo Araujo Jr. 62), Alvaro Saborio.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

TEAM NEWS Real Salt Lake are now winless in their last eight league matches away from Rio Tinto Stadium. After winning

their first two away games this season (at San Jose, 1-0 on March 19; at New England, 2-0 on April 9), RSL is 0-5-3 in league play since. Seven of RSL’s final 11 MLS games are on the road.

“We’re heartbroken, there’s no doubt about it. You look around the locker room, and all of us are feeling devastated about that, because you never want to be in a position where you have two leads and walk away with nothing,” said RSL coach Jason Kreis. “We would have at least liked to get the draw, and if we’re 30 seconds better there at the end, we walk away with at least a point, and we can pat ourselves on the back for all the hard work that we put into that. But to walk away with nothing, it feels very, very unfortunate.”

17-year-old playmaker Luis Gil scored for the second time in three games, all since moving into the starting lineup.

Fabian Espíndola scored his seventh goal of the season, moving him ahead of strike partner Álvaro Saborío for the team lead, and also giving him a new MLS career single-season high.

“I’m pleased with the number of chances we created, I’m pleased that we scored twice in Houston, and I’m pleased that we had two leads,” Kreis said. “Those are all positive things. Soccer is not always a one-sided affair, and so you have to look at both sides of the story, and the other half I’m pretty displeased about.”

Real Salt Lake have lost four times in the last five games, the club’s most losses in a five-game stretch since midway through the 2007 season.

Real still have yet to ever win in the state of Texas. At Robertson Stadium, RSL is now 0-7-1; all-time in the Lone Star State, Real are 0-17-2.

“We were holding our own. Nick [Rimando] made a few great saves for us and we just let him down,” said Andy Williams. “We expect it when we come here. Brian Ching and Costly and Cameron, they are all over 6-foot-3. We worked on it at practice to prepare for all the crosses coming in.”

For the moment, Real still find themselves comfortably in a playoff position. While seven points behind FC Dallas for the final automatic spot in the Western Conference, they started the week four points ahead of the final wild card spot.

“There have been a lot of players that have gotten a whole ton of opportunities, and a lot of them quite frankly aren’t getting the job done,” Kreis said. “Unless we get this turned around here and start heading in a positive direction for the playoffs, there’s going to be a lot of difficult decisions to make this offseason.”

GOATS FALL TO TIMBERS AS LONG ROAD TRIP ENDS IN PORTLAND: Chivas USA closed its fifth-consecutive road game with a loss (0-1) against its MLS Western Conference rival, Portland Timbers. The match took place at the Jeld-Wen Field before 18,627 fans on Wednesday night, and now earns the home team a new position in the Standings, which now occupies 6th place. Both squads created many goal opportunities in the first half of the match but only one team capitalized. The first goal of the game came at the 44th minute through a corner kick in favor of Timbers, Chabala cashed it and defender Eric Brunner jumped to meet the ball and softly deflected it with a header, enough to place it to the second post, far from Kennedy who could not do anything to avoid the ball ending at the back of his net. It was the third goal of the season for Brunner. The Red-and-White Head Coach Robin Fraser was forced to spend two substitutions because of injuries. Early in the game Mexican Mariano Trujillo entered the match due to defender's Michael Lahoud ankle injury at the 11th minute, and Brazilian Paulo Nagamura suffered a foot injury and was substituted by midfielder Simon Elliot at the 38th minute. Goat's GK Dan Kennedy kept Chivas USA in the game by pulling off several spectacular saves. Midfielder Simon Elliot made fans hold their breath with a free kick that Timber's goal keeper Troy Perkins barely tipped to deflect it just over his crossbar. Goat Laurent Courtois sent a heart-stopping strike that passed just on the side of Perkin's post. JIMMY CONRAD OFFICIALLY RETIRES AS A PROFESSIONAL PLAYER BUT NOT FROM SOCCER: The veteran defender for the Red and White, Jimmy Conrad, announced his official retirement as a professional soccer player during a press conference last Thursday August 18at the Home Depot Center, in Carson, California. “I spoke to people that are close to me, like my family, but mainly it was the doctors and coaches who helped me come to this conclusion. They informed me that it was probably in my best interest to retire, you know after six ‘documented’ concussions.” expressed Conrad. “The doctors couldn’t tell me what was going to happen if I suffered another one, what the long-term damage would be. I still have symptoms, I still have a headache that comes and goes. So, they basically said that this is probably what I should do (retire).” The now former Goats Defender also spoke of his long term and immediate future plans as well as his involvement with Chivas USA Youth Academy, “I know we’re working on restructuring our youth system, and I will be heavily involved with the development of the Chivas USA youth academy.” concluded the five time All-Star.

CHIVAS USA ACQUIRED COLOMBIAN STRIKER JUAN PABLO ANGEL: The leading goal scorer in MLS over the past five years is now a Goat and wastes no time in making his presence felt as he scored his first goal last Saturday evening in Colorado as a Rojiblanco. The club announced last Wednesday August 17 that it acquired forward Juan Pablo Angel from the LA Galaxy via trade. Chivas sent a 3rd round natural 2012 Supplemental Draft pick to LA in exchange for Angel. “Juan Pablo is a great pick up for us because he knows how to score goals and has scored the most goals in the League (MLS) through the last five years. Outside of his experience and ability on the field, he’s a classy person and I think that another experienced classy person in our locker-room is a positive,” commented Chivas USA Head Coach Robin Fraser. “It is a win-win when you get a good player and a good person who fits into what we are trying to do.” Angel joins the Rojiblancos after his stint with the LA Galaxy that began on January 19, 2011. During his tenure with the Galaxy, the forward participated in 22 matches, starting 17, scoring three goals and one assist. Angel has been named to the MLS All-Star team on three separate occasions and was a finalist for the MVP award in 2007. The experienced Colombian striker accumulated an average of more than one goal per two games played during his four year tenure with the New York Red Bulls (2007-2010) and holds the club’s all-time goal scoring record. “I’m looking forward to my joining Chivas USA. I hope to help the team through the last games of the regular season and qualify for the playoffs, which is obviously our main objective,” said newly acquired Chivas USA forward Juan Pablo Angel. “I hope the season is better for me compared to how it began. I now have the opportunity to help a team that has worked very hard to get where it is. Despite certain difficulties in the beginning of the year, this team has, little-by-little, found its best level of play. The coach has communicated his plan and the players understand it. I need to adapt very quickly and try to help the team earn a spot in the playoffs.” The South-American forward began his career at the age of 18 in his native Colombia with Atlético Nacional (1994-1997), before migrating to Argentina (River Plate 1997-2001); winning a pair of Apertura (1997 and 1999) titles, as well as one Clausura title (2000). After his successful career with River Plate, Angel was acquired by the English Premier League’s Aston Villa for £9.5 million. He participated in 200 matches for Aston Villa and scored 60 goals including 44 in the Premier League action.

SEEKING A STOP TO THE BLEEDING: Real Salt

Lake arrives Friday in Carson, Calif. for a third consecutive road match and the fourth of five road games in an August that has seen the team win just once since July 23 … Last week in Houston, RSL‟s leading 2011 scorer, FW Fabian Espíndola found the back of the net in the 29‟ to snap a road scoring drought of 427 minutes – spanning 69 days – but could not hold onto 1-0 and 2-1 leads against the Dynamo, which won 3-2 on a stoppage-time stunner by rookie Alex Dixon … The heartbreaking loss was RSL‟s fourth in its last five games and marked the second time in a month that RSL had suffered back-to-back losses, after not losing two in-a-row in a 44-game span dating back to April, 2010 … Recent losses at TOR and at HOU dropped RSL to 0-3-3 all-time in MLS and CCL competition in Canada, while RSL has also never won in Texas, posting an 0-17-2 mark on the road against the Dynamo (0-7-1 all-time) and FC Dallas (0-10-1 in MLS, playoff and Open Cup), outscored 20-43 on aggregate … Saturday‟s match at The Home Depot Center kicks off at 8:30 p.m. MT, with the match televised live nationwide on Fox Soccer … Fans can also follow over the air on RSL‟s official radio partners – ESPN 700 Sports Radio and ESPN Deportes 1600 AM / Juan 106.1 FM …

RSL INJURY REPORT (as of 8/24/11)

OUT: FW Chris Agorsor (R hand fracture), MF Nelson González (R foot fracture), MF Javier Morales (L ankle fracture dislocation), DF Chris Wingert (L wrist fracture)

DOUBTFUL: MF Ned Grabavoy (L adductor strain), GK Kyle Reynish (R ankle sprain)

QUESTIONABLE: M/F Arturo Alvarez (R knee contusion), FW Fabian Espíndola (L knee contusion), DF Jamison Olave (L knee MCL strain), GK Nick Rimando (back contusion)

PROBABLE: MF Jean Alexandre (R knee internal pain), FW Álvaro Saborío (R knee effusion)

NEED A RESULT, STAT: With a win or draw at The

Home Depot Center Saturday, RSL would avoid a third consecutive MLS loss – something that has happened just once since Jason Kreis became head coach, back in July of 2007 … After just 10 MLS, U.S. Open Cup and exhibition games into Jason‟s career, during an active period of player movement in and out of Jason‟s system, RSL suffered a home loss to Toronto FC on July 4, following that up with road losses at Columbus and Kansas City … If you include all competitions, RSL has not lost three consecutive matches since May of 2008, when road losses at Colorado and Dallas were followed by an Open Cup loss at Columbus – the only time in Jason‟s 4 full seasons at the helm with back-to-back-to-back losses … Earlier this month, RSL was on the precipice of a third consecutive loss, but dominated New York 3-0 at home to avoid the rarity … Now it faces former assistant Robin Fraser with a chance to salvage some August points before a critical six-game September …

REAL SALT LAKE @ CHIVAS USA – SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 2011

HISTORY VS EXPANSION BRETHREN CHIVAS:

Real Salt Lake has enjoyed a significant amount of recent success against its 2005 expansion partner CD Chivas USA, losing only once in the teams‟ last seven regular- and post-season meetings, including a first-round playoff series victory in 2008 … The games are usually tight, however, as only six of the 21 all-time meetings have been decided by more than one goal … On the plus side for RSL, however, is the fact that nearly 1/3 of the team‟s all-time road wins have come at the Carson-based facility, RSL winning 5 times in 19 tries against Chivas and LA Galaxy at The Home Depot Center … In last year‟s visit to The HDC, FW Fabian Espindola provided the late heroics, answering a late equalizer by SLC native Justin Braun with the game-winner in the 89‟ to give RSL a 2-1 victory at The Home Depot Center … Real Salt Lake vs. Chivas USA

BAD BLOOD BREWING FOR RSL & CHIVAS?:

Last time the teams met, Real Salt Lake improved its league-leading record to 5-1-0 with a simultaneously dramatic and heartbreaking 1-0 victory, as Chivas suffered a pair of first-half red cards, the second coming by Marcos Mondaini after his ankle-breaking tackle on RSL MF Javier Morales … RSL broke its 267-minute streak without a goal in combined CCL/MLS competition when MF Will Johnson slammed home a ball on the line in the 87

th minute (assists to MF Collen Warner and DF Nat

Borchers) in a game marred by the Morales injury … RSL out-shot Chivas 17-3 overall (8-1 on goal) and controlled 80% of the possession in the 2nd half, but was nearly unable to break down the nine “Goats” in the box, which also saw DF Andrew Boyens ejected after his 2

nd cautionable takedown of RSL FW Alvaro Saborio …

With that early May win over Chivas, RSL improved to 4-1-2 at Rio Tinto Stadium against the Rojiblancos, outscoring the “Goats” 7-1 … Johnson’s game-saving goal was his first MLS tally in more than a calendar year (although the Canadian international had 3 goals in 6 CCL group games in 2010, and has since scored on July 4 in the 3-3 draw vs NE) … Borchers’ assist was his first in 90 MLS regular season games and first at Rio Tinto Stadium, his last helper coming on 4/12/08 in a 4-0 W over DC …

SEEING RED, BUT TO LITTLE ADVANTAGE:

Back on May 7, in RSL‟s 1-0 home win over CD Chivas USA, RSL saw an opponent hit with multiple red cards for the third time in the team’s now 207-game MLS regular-season history, with the 65-minute span with at least a one-man advantage the longest in club annals … For an incredible amount of 49 minutes, RSL enjoyed a TWO-MAN advantage over Chivas USA, playing 11-v-9 in deadlocked fashion prior to Will Johnson’s victory-clinching goal in the 87

th minute … On only one

prior occasion – Oct. 18, 2008, in the 2nd

-ever game at Rio Tinto Stadium – had RSL enjoyed a 2-man advantage over its opponent, but that was just for stoppage time of the team‟s 3-1 victory over FC Dallas, a game known primarily for Johnson‟s 2008 MLS Goal of the Year blast … Following the August 3 ejection of KC MF Roger Espinoza in the 57

th minute v KC, RSL opponents have now been

subject to ejection on 27 occasions, giving the Claret-and-Cobalt a total of 487 minutes with a man-advantage … During those minutes, RSL has now seen a +13 goal difference, thanks to the 4-goal outburst on July 23 vs SJ …

OTHER RED CARD MISCELLANY: RSL has never

played with just nine men due to disciplinary issues, and has now scored SEVEN short-handed goals (Jason Kreis, 7/4/05 v. NY; Chris Klein & Kreis, 9/16/06 v. DAL; a Chris Leitch own-goal on 7/3/09 v. SJ; Nelson Gonzalez late goal on 5/28/11 v SEA; and the Johnson/Saborio goals on July 4 v NE) … All-time, RSL now has been victim of 30 red cards, succumbing to a -9 goal difference in a total of 632 minutes playing a man down … Incredibly, SIX of those nine goals came in one game, the 0-6 loss @NY in August 2006 when DF Jack Stewart was tossed in the 8

th minute

…

MORALES A MARKED MAN IN MLS: Argentine

playmaker Javier Morales has played 116 games for RSL (93 MLS regular-season, 8 playoff, 3 Open Cup, 12 CCL) … During that time, he has been the most-fouled player in the League (reg. season only), an indicator of the target on his back by opposing defenses …

REAL SALT LAKE @ CHIVAS USA – SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 2011

The list (from 8/29/07 to 5/7/11): Player FS

Javier Morales - RSL 211

Alejandro Moreno - CLB 199

ALL-TIME RESULTS, WITHOUT JAVIER: Since the

talismanic Argentine Javier Morales‟ arrival on the Wasatch Front, RSL has played 45 MLS regular-season/playoff, CCL or Open Cup games without its playmaker, posting a 17-15-14 overall mark (only 4-11-5 away from home) … Head Coach Jason Kreis‟ team has gone 13-13-12 in MLS reg. season play, 0-0-1 Playoff, 3-0-0 in CONCACAF and 1-2-1 in Open Cup sans Javi … Since the beginning of the 2009 season, that record is 14-12-11, including the ability to score 2+ goals in only 17 of those 37 games without Javier … The breakdown:

TIRELESS BECKERMAN CALLED IN AGAIN: RSL

Captain Kyle Beckerman was once again called in for U.S. Men‟s National Team duty by new Head Coach Jurgen Klinsmann for the Sept. 6 international friendly in Belgium … U.S. Soccer is permitting Beckerman to remain with his RSL club for its Sept. 3 MLS match against Philadelphia – causing the dreadlocked one to miss the Friday, Sept. 2 friendly in Carson against Costa Rica – and join the team in Belgium on the 4

th …

Beckerman started and played 90 “exceptional” minutes in the United States‟ 1-1 friendly draw with Mexico in Philadelphia 17 days ago, earning praise from Klinsmann … Beckerman – one of three RSL All-Stars this season – now has 13 caps and one goal for the U.S., scoring in the 2009 Gold Cup Quarterfinal v Panama at Lincoln Financial Field, site of the August 10 game … The National Team duty and subsequent appearance on Aug. 13 in Toronto gave the 12-year MLS veteran Beckerman a total of 7 games in 3 weeks from July 23 – Aug. 13, playing a full 90 minutes in five RSL games plus the USMNT contest, along with the final 45 minutes in the MLS All-Stars‟ loss to Manchester United on July 27 … The RSL Captain has started and played a full 90 minutes in 27 of RSL’s 31 games this year (21 out of 23 MLS games, along with 5 of 6 CCL matches and the Open Cup Quarterfinal at Dallas) … Out of the 31 games in all competitions, Beckerman has sat out only the CCL Final v. Monterrey (suspended due to yellow cards) and the Open Cup contest v. Wilmington Hammerheads … In the pair of MLS games with New England, Beckerman played the final 27 minutes in Foxboro (a 2-0 RSL win) and the final 45 at home (a 3-3 draw with RSL a man down for 57 minutes) …

RARE TRIO OF CONSECUTIVE ROAD GAMES:

Saturday‟s road match at Chivas is the third “on-the-trot” for RSL, only the fourth time in the team‟s seven-season history that it will play three or more consecutive away games, never losing 3 in a row … Past results: 2010: 4/14 @ SJ (3-3 T); 4/17 @ LA (1-2 L); 4/24 @ CLB (0-1 L) 0-2-1 2007: 9/1 @ LA (2-1 W); 9/8 @ HOU (3-4 L); 9/12 @ DC (1-2 L) 1-2-0 2007: 5/10 @ COL (1-1 T); 5/20 @ DAL (1-2 L); 5/23 @ COL (1-2 L); 5/27 @ CHI (0-0 T); 6/2 @ NE (0-0 T) 0-2-3

REAL SALT LAKE @ CHIVAS USA – SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 2011

ROAD WARRIORS’ MIXED BAG: Despite late

collapses at Houston and Columbus, Real Salt Lake – once the worst road team in the history of MLS – has earned points in 18 of its last 29 road games dating back to May, 2010 in MLS, CCL and Open Cup play … This recent advent of road success places the squad‟s all-time regular season road mark at 16-60-26 (.283; 91 GF / 170 GA) following the 102

nd road contest in League

play last week at Houston … Since Kreis took over, RSL‟s MLS road mark is 12-36-21, with the four road wins in 2010 doubling the two earned in each of the 2007-09 seasons … Ten games down (2-5-3, 10 pts), 7 to go in 2011 … Starting with Aug. 13 at Toronto, and factoring in the new Oct. 6 date north of the border, the Claret-and-Cobalt will play 9 of its final 13 regular season contests – and 5 of the last 7 – away from the friendly confines of Rio Tinto Stadium …

LINEUP SHUFFLE STOPPED IN TORONTO … :

For the first time in more than a year, Real Salt Lake Head Coach Jason Kreis rolled out the same starting XI at Toronto as he had the previous week – in the team‟s 30

th

game in all competitions this season … Injuries, cards, suspensions, national team duty and fixture congestion had all conspired to prevent a duplicate lineup in back-to-back matches, something that had not happened since July 31/Aug. 7, 2010 – a span of 48 MLS, CCL and Open Cup games …

… BUT PICKED UP AGAIN IN HOUSTON:

However, Kreis‟ carousel continues, as DF Chris Wingert (left wrist fracture) and MF Will Johnson (yellow-card accumulation) missed last week‟s game in Houston … With his trio of caution-free games in early August, Captain and MF Kyle Beckerman has now earned a similar “Good Behavior” reduction … Beckerman, as well as FW Fabian Espíndola, DF Chris Wingert, DF Robbie Russell and M/F Jean Alexandre are each TWO cautions away from suspension …

DEPTH CONTINUALLY TESTED: While RSL Nation

was elated to see FW Paulo Junior return to action for the final 9 minutes @ TOR for first time since mid-April (a span of 17 MLS games, and 20 games in all competitions), several regular starters have missed significant time due to long-term injuries … DF Chris Wingert is expected to be out six weeks, while MF Ned Grabavoy is also expected to miss most of August and perhaps part September due to a groin strain … DF Jamison Olave suffered a knee injury in the MLS All-Star Game, while MF Javier Morales – the man who has made the RSL attack click since 2008 – has missed 22 games and counting, as he targets an Oct. 1 return from the broken ankle suffered back on May 7 …

This year‟s time lost due to injury, suspension or int‟l duty: PLAYER MIN. LOST RECORD RETURN

Javier Morales 2340 7-7-6 10/1 @ LA ???

Paulo Junior 1880 5-5-6 8/13 @ TOR

Alvaro Saborio 810 2-3-3

Arturo Alvarez 810 3-2-3

Fabian Espindola 630 1-1-2

Will Johnson 720 1-2-2

The total number of games lost due to injury or national team duty this season? … Nearly 100 games worth by RSL’s top contributors … Almost 1/2 of those games missed have been by Morales and Paulo Junior, with RSL posting a 5-5-6 MLS mark in games missed completely by the dynamic duo …

KYLE HELPING OUT: Captain Kyle Beckerman

notched his team-high seventh assist of the season back on August 6 in the 3-0 win over NY, his setup of both first-half goals by DF Nat Borchers and Luis Gil, giving RSL a 2-0 halftime lead … The seven assists are the most for Beckerman in a single-season since joining RSL midway through 2007, far outpacing his career-high in the category (5 w/ COL in 2003) with 12 MLS games remaining … Beckerman‟s 15 assists with RSL place him in sole possession of 3

rd all-time (behind Javi Morales‟ 33 and

Andy Williams‟ 28), while his eight game-winning assists – the most recent of which came on Borchers‟ header v NY – is one better than Morales‟ seven in team history …

ESPINDOLA SEIZING THE DAY: RSL FW Fabian

Espindola tallied a goal and an assist in the 2-3 loss @ HOU last week, his seventh goal of the season moving him into sole possession of the team‟s scoring lead, one goal ahead of strike partner Alvaro Saborio … The goal-and-assist effort on the night was the third in Espíndola‟s five seasons with Real Salt Lake, and his first in 38 contests dating back to the 2010 season opener on March 27 at San Jose (3-0 W) … Espindola – who ranks behind only Robbie Findley in team scoring annals with 23 career goals (Findley, 29) – is now one of eight players with multiple assists for the Claret-and-Cobalt in league play this season …

GIL STEPPING UP AS WELL: Espindola set up the

goal at the hour mark by MF Luis Gil marked his second tally in his last three games (all starts) … The budding 17-year-old playmaker opened his MLS account in RSL‟s 3-0 win over New York on August 6 at Rio Tinto Stadium …

REAL SALT LAKE @ CHIVAS USA – SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 2011

JUST CALL RIMANDO “MR. CLEAN” – AGAIN:

The August 6 shutout against New York was RSL‟s 11th in

league play this season and Nick Rimando‟s 10th of 2011

… Rimando trails only his opposite number from Dallas, Kevin Hartman (12), for the league lead in shutouts … Rimando (84) and Hartman (104) are also 1-2 on the League‟s career shutout list … In addition, Rimando ranks among MLS‟ best this season with a 0.91 GAA (2

nd), a

409-minute shutout streak (3rd

), 9 wins (T-4th) and a 73.7

save percentage (6th) …

RSL GK Nick Rimando recorded his 84

th career shutout

on Aug. 6 vs NY, 48 of which have now come in the RSL Claret-and-Cobalt … Rimando also had two shutouts in CONCACAF play earlier this year at Columbus and v Saprissa, while Reynish tallied a clean sheet in the 2011 Open Cup debut against Wilmington on June 28 …

DOMINANT DEFENSE NEEDS SOME SUPPORT:

Despite the shock of the recent 0-2 losses suffered v CLB and @ KC, along with last week‟s 0-1 loss at TOR, RSL‟s vaunted rearguard has still allowed only 20 goals through 23 games, including the concession of one goal or fewer in 15 of 23 MLS contests … The team boasts allowing a league-low 0.24 GAA and 20 goals allowed thus far, including three on PKs … Last year, RSL allowed just 20 goals in the 30-game regular season, setting a new standard in MLS annals and breaking the 2007 Houston Dynamo record of 23 GA …

FEAST OR FAMINE ON THE RSL ATTACK: Due to

the onslaught of injuries, suspension and Gold Cup duty, Real Salt Lake suffered a stretch of 11 contests from April through June in which its scored multiple goals in league play just once – a 2-0 win over Vancouver on June 4 … However, the Claret-and-Cobalt had climbed their way out of the scoring funk, pouring in 12 goals across four league contests (3-1 W v TOR on June 25, a 3-3 T v NE on July 4, a 2-0 W v DAL on July 9 and a 4-0 W v SJ on July 23) … What a difference a week makes, as RSL went scoreless in two games v CLB and @ KC, suffering back-to-back shutouts before exploding for three goals Aug. 6 against New York … Then it was back to zero at Toronto on Aug. 13, prior to scoring twice and holding 1-0 and 2-1 leads last week @ HOU … The only previous time RSL lost a game in which it had led twice? … you guessed it, the 3-4 loss @ HOU back on Aug. 6, 2008 … The back-to-back “donuts” for RSL against CLB and KC marked the second time this season (May 14 & 22 v HOU and @ DAL) that Kreis‟ team failed to score in consecutive matches … A year ago, RSL paced the league with 45 goals scored in its 30 contests (1.50) …

THIRSTY FOR A GOAL, BUT NOT PARCHED: The

RSL road goal-less drought of 336 (MLS) minutes snapped by Espindola last week was the fourth-longest in the club’s seven-season history, but ranks less than half as long as the longest in MLS annals … The facts, courtesy of Elias Sports Bureau:

STREAK STOPPED AT SEVEN: Real Salt Lake‟s 0-2

loss to Columbus on July 30 halted the team‟s unbeaten run at seven MLS games, marking the club‟s third-longest stretch without a loss in team history … The only longer streaks each originated last year, when single-season runs of 10 and 14 games for Jason Kreis‟ team without a loss, the latter extended to 18 with its hot regular-season start this year:

performed exceptionally in the 45 games played between May 1, 2010 and April 30, 2011, losing only six times in that stretch, the rough equivalent of a season-and-a-half … Across MLS reg. season, MLS Playoff and CONCACAF Champions League games, Jason Kreis‟ team posted an impressive mark of 26-6-13 and outscored opponents 75-33 since May 1, 2010 … RSL would have earned 91 points in this stretch … The MLS equivalents: (reg.-season games only)

Prior to April 30 at Portland, the lone MLS losses both came on the road at Dallas on July 17 and Oct. 30, sandwiched around the bizarre 4-5 loss at Cruz Azul … The fourth loss was the 1-2 decision at Saprissa which enabled RSL to advance to the CCL Final …

REAL SALT LAKE @ CHIVAS USA – SATURDAY, AUGUST 27, 2011

TWO-GOAL COMEBACKS: Real Salt Lake emerged

with a point on July 4 for the sixth time in club history after spotting the opposition a two-goal lead … Four of the six 2-goal comebacks have occurred at home, with three of the four happening as precursors to the Independence Day or Pioneer Day fireworks shows … This week‟s NE comeback was the second to occur on July 4, as former captain Jason Kreis tallied a 90‟ PK v NY to salvage a 2-2 draw … In last year‟s regular-season finale at rival Colorado, Saborio scored twice in second-half stoppage time to retain the Rocky Mountain Cup for holders RSL … The only win of the six came against Dallas … In 2009, RSL stormed back from a 0-2 deficit at halftime to visiting Dallas on Pioneer Day to score four in an incredible second half, which saw GK Nick Rimando stone a Jeff Cunningham PK and Yura Movsisyan notch a 2

brace … The list:

RSL “BRACING” FOR SUCCESS: With FW Alvaro

Saborio‟s two-goal „brace‟ on July 23 v SJ, RSL has now seen 20 of its 30 all-time multi-goal performances occur at home in its 207-game MLS regular-season game, 12-game CCL and 12-game Open Cup histories … The multi-goal game was Saborio‟s 7

th cross all competitions, ahead

of Jeff Cunningham (5) and Javier Morales‟ tie with Robbie Findley with four “braces,” while Yura Movsisyan and Jason Kreis each had 2, ahead of Paulo Junior, Will Johnson, Kyle Beckerman, Atiba Harris, Chris Brown and Fabian Espíndola, who have each also scored 2 or more times in a game … When an RSL player scores 2 or more goals in a game, the team has posted a 21-3-4 all-time mark … Besides the 4-5 loss at Cruz Azul in CCL play and the 4-6 loss at Minnesota in Open Cup action, when was the lone MLS loss? … June 17, 2007, when Chris Brown‟s brace @LA was wasted in a 2-3 loss:

HOW DOES RSL GET BACK IN TO CCL?: RSL

probably won‟t play another international side – exhibition or otherwise – until the 2012/13 CONCACAF tourney, which it could only qualify for by winning the 2011 MLS Supporters Shield crown or be a MLS Cup 2011 participant … RSL saw its other opportunity fall by the wayside this week after falling out of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup via a quarterfinal defeat at FC Dallas … Had RSL defeated Dallas in last year‟s MLS Cup Playoff series, or even had Los Angeles advanced in place of Dallas to MLS Cup – RSL would have qualified for this year‟s CONCACAF Champions League due to LA essentially owning “dual” slots (Supp. Shield / Cup participant) and RSL finishing #2 in last year‟s overall MLS table …

RSL’S INTERNATIONAL HISTORY: With the late

April 0-1 loss to Monterrey in the 2010/11 CONCACAF Final, RSL is now 12-7-6 all-time in international contests, with a positive goal differential (43 goals for / 33 goals against) … In meaningful int‟l competition, RSL is now 6-3-3 (26 GF / 17 GA) … In the Jason Kreis era, RSL falls to 8-3-2 vs. visiting international squads (does NOT include Toronto FC league matches; however, DOES include CCL games vs Columbus) …

DIXON THE LATEST – & FIRST IN AWHILE:

During Real Salt Lake‟s early years, it seemed like fans‟ hearts were routinely broken by an opposing goal from a player few had ever heard of … Between 2005-07, the club’s turmoil-filled early years, 20 different players scored their first-ever MLS goal against the hapless Claret-and-Cobalt … In the Kreis era, as the team matured, that trend slowed to a trickle – only three players in 2008-09 found the back of the net for the first time vs. RSL … Earlier this year, Seattle‟s Lamar Neagle became the first player in two years to bury his first career tally against RSL , with his bending 84‟ blast that proved to be the game winner … Two weeks later, Philadelphia midfielder Keon Daniel struck with his initial MLS goal … That feat was repeated last week in Houston, as homegrown player Alex Dixon opened his MLS account with a stoppage-time dagger for the Dynamo to send RSL to a crushing defeat … Dixon is now one of the 12 to have scored their lone career MLS goal (as of Aug. 25, 2011, indicated by an *) … The list:

KREIS CONTRACT EXTENDED THRU 2013: On

March 24, RSL President Bill Manning and GM Garth Lagerwey announced that the club has extended by two years the contract of current Head Coach Jason Kreis, keeping the youngest MLS Cup-winning manager in League history on the RSL sideline through the completion of the 2013 season … All-time, Kreis now owns a 55-44-37 mark in MLS regular-season, playoff and CONCACAF Champions League play …

Under Kreis‟ leadership, RSL became the first-ever MLS team (and one of just three non-Mexican teams) to win a CONCACAF group, posting a 4-1-1 mark and becoming the first-ever MLS side to advance CCL Final … The former striker‟s 2010 side was also the second-highest-scoring team in CONCACAF‟s group stage, with 17 goals in six games (2.83 goals/game) … During MLS play in 2010, the following numbers established by RSL set or tied new single-season league standards:

fewest goals allowed (20)

overall goal differential (+25)

total home points (37)

fewest home losses (0)

fewest home goals allowed (7) In addition to those league benchmarks, last year‟s edition set franchise-high records in

FORTRESS STARTING TO CRACK?: With RSL‟s 1-

rd consecutive season, qualifying for

Playoffs and eventually winning MLS Cup and paving way to CCL participation; Biggest Crowd: 3/26/11 v LA – a RioT record of 20,507 saw RSL score twice in first 10 minutes en route to a 3-0 halftime lead and an eventual 4-1 win over David Beckham and the L.A. Galaxy, despite the FIFA date and a Jazz home game; Loudest Crowd: 4/10/10 v SEA – 19,970 were on hand as newcomer Álvaro Saborío headed home a Nelson Gonzalez corner kick three minutes into 2
