Quietly, Luke Mulholland has been a consistent contributor for Real Salt Lake in his three years with the club. Every now and then, though, he makes a memorable statement in a game that elevates him to another level. Against the Columbus Crew in May was one such instance, as the English midfielder scored the first goal in a seven-goal affair that is now in the Round of 32 in the MLSsoccer.com Goal of the Year tournament.
In the 13th minute of the match, RSL won the ball on the defensive side and Mulholland played it wide to Joao Plata in the attacking third.
