Real Monarchs Game at a Glance: 5/29/19

Real Monarchs SLC 1 at Portland Timbers 2 2

May 29, 2019; Portland, Oregon; Providence Park

Real Monarchs SLC (3-6-3, 12 points); Portland Timbers 2 (6-2-4, 22 points)

Man of the Match: Defender Konrad Plewa came up big for the Monarchs throughout the night, helping to shut down an aggressive Portland offense and attempted opportunities towards goal. Plewa nearly found the opening goal in the 13th minute with his diving header that just missed the mark from a corner kick. Through the night, Plewa cut out the Timbers 2 attack, protecting an open net on one occasion and using his height to get in the way of long balls to stop the potent offense.
