Rafael Cabral, the team’s goalkeeper, added to his impressive record with his sixth clean sheet of the season.

Coach Pablo Mastroeni has been leading the team since August 2021, and he has been instrumental in guiding Real Salt Lake through both victories and setbacks. Dropping consecutive games is a rare occurrence under his leadership, and the team will be looking to keep up their winning streak with a victory against Kansas City.

Several players from the Real Salt Lake Academy have been making waves this season. Zavier Gozo, a young talent, has been shining with his recent performances, and Aiden Hezarkhani made his MLS debut at just 17 years old. These promising players are the future stars to watch out for.

As the season progresses, Real Salt Lake will be pushing to improve their away record and make their mark in the league. With the support of their dedicated fans and the guidance of Coach Mastroeni, the team is poised for success in the upcoming matches.
