Maund Carries the Torch for RSL Center Backs
Aaron Maund made one of the greatest saves you’ll see from a defender on Saturday to keep Real Salt Lake in position to earn three points in a 1-0 win over the Colorado Rapids. On Friday, he recapped the play that helped preserve RSL’s first shutout of the season when he appeared on The Bill Riley Show on ESPN 700.
“Whenever I see Nick (Rimando) go out – whether it’s for a situation like what happened the other day where the ball’s on the ground or when the ball is in the air – I just try to cover him and get in the goal. I saw Gashi lining up the shot and I just tried to get my feet moving to get into a good spot and he ended up hitting it in a spot where I could get it,” Maund said.
