The Real Salt Lake Academy capped its 2018/19 U.S. Soccer Development Academy regular season on Saturday, hosting Pateadores at the Zions Bank Real Academy. With both the U-17 and U-19 teams seeking a victory to push it further up the playoff standings, both teams fell at home to close out the regular season.
In the first match of the day, the U-17s were looking to solidify the fourth spot in the Southwest Division on the final day of the season. The younger group ultimately fell 3-1 with Abel Mendoza notching RSL’s lone goal of the day as the team settled for the fifth and final spot in the Southwest division.
