Anderson Julio rescues win at the death, powers RSL 2-1 past LA Galaxy

Anderson Julio rescued a win for Real Salt Lake at the absolute death of the match, finishing in stoppage time with as good a goal as you’ll see at Rio Tinto Stadium.

Real Salt Lake scored the opener in controversial fashion, with Damir Kreilach nodding a ball into the ground, with LA Galaxy goalkeeper Jonathan Bond getting a desperate paw on the ball as it spun over the goal line. A VAR check confirmed that the ball crossed the line, but to this observer, it was something I couldn’t determine without goal-line technology, myself. (Maybe someday.) Still, a goal is a goal, and it was a very nice goal.
