Match Recap
R. Cannon settled a scrappy Rocky Mountain Derby with a composed finish in the 58th minute, handing Colorado Rapids a 1-0 win over Real Salt Lake in Major League Soccer and extending their rivals' miserable run to five games without a victory. Real Salt Lake arrived at Dick's Sporting Goods Park having collected just two draws from their last five outings, and Colorado made them pay, riding their own four-win streak into a result that moves the Rapids to 31 points. The head-to-head history made this feel riskier than it looked: Colorado had taken only one win from their previous three meetings with Salt Lake, losing twice, so flipping that script mattered. Cannon's goal, arriving just past the hour mark with RSL still searching for a foothold, was the kind of decisive moment that ends winless runs for one side and starts them for the other. Find out exactly how he got it in the highlights.
