Herriman • After the first two games of the 2018 season, Real Salt Lake’s defense left much to be desired. They allowed a total of six goals on 39 shots and came away winless.
But so far this season, RSL has flipped the script on the defensive end. It has yet to lose a game going into Saturday’s road match against D.C. United, and has allowed only one goal on 24 total shots. Last week’s win against Vancouver was the team’s first shutout since its 6-0 victory over the Colorado Rapids late August of last year.
