Things got off to an unfortunate start for Real when five minutes in the Rapids were able to zig zag the defense to confuse them a bit. They got a good shot off which Nick Rimando was able to save but Gashi beat the defenders to the ball and put in the rebound. As has been custom this season, RSL didn't hang their heads and Burrito in particular was slicing and dicing to create chances. It paid off in the 38th minute when he found a streaking Demar Phillips whomcut it back at the end line and found Yura Movsisyan who slotted it in to tie the game.
