Match Thoughts: Real Salt Lake vs. Chicago Fire

I hate having to write these entries on a tough night like tonight. Bleh. However, with the good comes the bad. Tonight at the RioT was an example of the bad.

It didn't have to start that way though. Sabo had a great look in the opening minutes, but his shot sailed just wide of the far post. After that the match changed for the worse for RSL.

In the 9th minute Pappa scored the first of his three for Fire, left totally alone in the box. Then less than a minute later Kyle Beckerman received a red card for a nasty head butt that will probably cost him some games.

RSL just never really got it going after that. As coach Kries said, totally undisciplined. Pappa dropped two more on us to make the final score 0-3. The only positive tonight was the return of Javi Morales after his broken ankle. That was really nice to see.
