Jeff Cassar decided to rest some of the regular starters with so many games coming up and, for better or for worse, things got entertaining very fast. The Crew were in control for a good 10 minutes or so until RSL came up with some great interplay up front resulting in a beautifully placed goal from Luke Mulholland in the top right corner. Salt Lake's lead didn't last long with Justin Meram finding Ola Kamara across the goal to tie the match. A couple minutes later Columbis kept making some tough runs and RSL's defense found themselves recovering all too often and Justen Glad had an own goal after a last gasp Aaron Maund tackle.
