PORTLAND TIMBERS vs REAL SALT LAKE JELD-WEN FIELD, Portland, Ore. Oct. 19, 2013 (WEEK 34, MLS Game #311) 7:30 p.m. PT (ROOT-NW; KUCW) A massive game in the Western Conference is ahead on Saturday evening as the Portland Timbers play host to Real Salt Lake. Both teams can secure their places in the MLS Cup Playoffs with the right results from the weekend matches – but also at stake is the conference lead and the Supporters’ Shield. The Timbers lead the West by a point following their 1-0 win at Seattle last weekend; RSL returns to action in a tie for second place, coming off a 1-1 home draw with FC Dallas two weekends ago.

They reached a wild 3-3 draw Aug. 21 at Jeld-Wen Field as RSL’s Cole Grossman scored deep in stoppage time, then Javier Morales and Luis Gil each had a goal and an assist in a 4-2 Real victory Aug. 30 at Rio Tinto Stadium. The teams also played in a U.S. Open Cup semifinal Aug. 7 at Rio Tinto Stadium, a 2-1 RSL victory.  The Timbers have won once in seven league meetings all-time – a 1-0 win in the first encounter between the clubs, April 30, 2011 in Portland.  The teams also played in a U.S. Open Cup semifinal Aug. 7 at Rio Tinto Stadium. Alvaro Saborio scored in the seventh minute and Joao Plata netted in the 78th to lead RSL to a 2-1 victory; Diego Valeri scored a late stoppage time goal for Portland.  Coaches record: Caleb Porter vs. RSL: P2 W0 L1 D1… Jason Kreis vs. POR: P7 W4 L1 D2 LAST MEETING (MLS)  Real were two goals ahead before the match was fully a quarter-hour old. In the ninth minute, a crisp passing sequence led to the opener, with Joao Plata one-timing a pass through the right side of the box to Luis Gil who clinically finished inside the far post. Six minutes later it was Plata who raced past a defender and hammered a left-footed shot past 'keeper Donovan Ricketts, off the far post, and into the net.  The Timbers pulled a goal in the 31st minute after Michael Harrington set off on a storming, 50-yard run up the field before laying off to Darlington Nagbe, who scorched a low shot from distance past Nick Rimando.  In first-half stoppage time, Timbers midfielder Ben Zemanski saw a straight red from referee Baldomero Toledo for a high challenge on Ned Grabavoy.  RSL took advantage with two goals by the three-quarter mark. It was piece of brillance from Morales in the 55th minute, twisting his body to hit a bicycle kick from a corner kick that flew back across the goal and bounced in off the post. Alvaro Saborio then flicked home a free kick from Morales to make the score 4-1.  Sal Zizzo provided the final scoreline when he knocked home a rebound in the area from a Rimando save.  REAL SALT LAKE (4-3-1-2): Nick Rimando - Tony Beltran, Carlos Salcedo, Nat Borchers, Chris Wingert - Luis Gil (Sebastian Velasquez 72), Kyle Beckerman, Ned Grabavoy - Javier Morales - Joao Plata (Robbie Findley 61), Alvaro Saborio.

PORTLAND TIMBERS The Portland Timbers stretched their late-season undefeated run to six matches, defeating arch-rival Seattle Sounders FC 1-0 on Sunday evening at Jeld-Wen Field. The Timbers now lead the Western Conference with 53 points from 32 matches. LAST MATCH  The game’s only goal came just before halftime. A Jack Jewsbury free kick deflected to an open Kalif Alhassan, and he fired a missile from about 16 yards out past Marcus Hahnemann in the Sounders FC goal.  Sounders FC ended the game a man down after hard foul on Timbers forward Darlington Nagbe in the 73rd minute, which resulted in Sounders captain Osvaldo Alonso being shown red by referee Hilario Grajeda for an elbow to the face of Portland's Will Johnson.  Timbers head coach Caleb Porter made one change to the team that played to a 2-2 draw with Vancouver Whitecaps FC at BC Place. Jose Adolfo Valencia came into the side with Rodney Wallace on international duty.  PORTLAND TIMBERS (4-3-3): Donovan Ricketts - Jack Jewsbury, Pa Modou Kah, Mamadou Danso, Michael Harrington - Diego Chara, Will Johnson, Kalif Alhassan (Sal Zizzo 86) - Darlington Nagbe, Maximiliano Urruti (Frederic Piquionne 84), Jose Adolfo Valencia (Ben Zemanski 67). TEAM NEWS  The Timbers extended their unbeaten streak to six games, the second-longest in the club’s MLS history, after their 15-game undefeated run earlier this season.  “I thought we started the game well again, got the first goal again, that’s now four games in a row where we’ve gotten the first goal,” said Timbers head coach Caleb Porter. “I thought we managed, overall, the game very well, especially at the end. I thought we had moments where we played some very good football. We had our foot on the ball, we possessed the ball and had some nice combination play.”  With the victory, the Timbers moved back atop the Western Conference standings, for the first time since June 23 (when they were tied atop the division). They can clinch a berth in the MLS Cup Playoffs with a point from the RSL match, or the failure of San Jose or Colorado to win over the weekend.  Kalif Alhassan scored his third goal of the league campaign, all coming over the last nine matches, since Aug. 21.  “There have been so many guys that have transformed as players. … Kalif, it’s not just on ball, it’s his defending. Watch how hard the kid works. He didn’t even know the word defend, I don’t think. I think it’s a product of having these guys bought in,” said Porter.  Said midfielder Will Johnson: "He seems to get big goal in big games for us and that's great. He's evolving as a player, he's defending more and he's becoming a more complete player. From time to time, he produces something very special in the box and tonight you can't put a price on a guy that can finish like that in the box. That's the ultimate prize in the game we play.”  Diego Valeri missed a league match for the first time since May 25, unable to feature through injury. Valeri has started just two of the last six matches for the Timbers, back-to-back matches Sept. 20-29.  Jose Adolfo Valencia made his first start since Sept. 14, coming into a wide role on the left with Rodney Wallace on World Cup qualifying duty with Costa Rica.  “I think we've said throughout the course of the year, it's not just the first 11 guys. It's a deep, deep team, probably one of the deepest teams I've ever played on in terms of when guys step out for international duty or injuries another guy is ready and willing to step into that role. They've gotten chances and done very well with them,” defender Jack Jewsbury said.  The Timbers kept a clean sheet for the fourth time in their six-game undefeated run. Donovan Ricketts recorded his 12th shutout, tying him for the MLS lead along with Philadelphia’s Zac MacMath and Sporting KC goalkeeper Jimmy Nielsen.  “I think we defended well. Like I said, we dodged a few bullets, set pieces. Ricketts made a few saves again, surprise, surprise. But I think overall, they didn’t have a ton of good looks from the run of play,” said Porter. “We still need to do better on set pieces, box defending, late, when they dump some balls in. The coach in me wants to still get those things cleaned up, and those are things we will get cleaned up, and we will address even though we won the game.” REAL SALT LAKE Real Salt Lake return to action coming off a 1-1 home draw with FC Dallas on Oct. 5 at Rio Tinto Stadium. RSL is in second place in the Western Conference with 52 points from 31 games. matches.

MLS GAME INFORMATION

LAST MATCH  Real were a man down after just 17 minutes when Abdoulie Mansally was sent off by referee Hilario Grajeda after a late, hard tackle on Jackson.  But the home side was able to take the lead in the 60th minute when Alvaro Saborío got on the end of a long, bouncing ball cleared toward the Dallas area, held off three Dallas defenders and won just enough space to fire a right-footed shot past goalkeeper Chris Seitz.  But the visitors pulled even 12 minutes later. Substitute Je-Vaughn Watson raced down the left wing and hit a ball across the middle that goalkeeper Nick Rimando could only parry to Kenny Cooper, who took one touch before poking it into the back of the net.  RSL head coach Jason Kreis made eight changes to the team that defeated Vancouver Whitecaps FC 1-0 at BC Place. Only center back Chris Schuler, fullback Abdoulie Mansally and midfielder Luis Gil remained in the team.  REAL SALT LAKE (4-3-1-2): Nick Rimando - Tony Beltran, Chris Schuler, Nat Borchers, Abdoulie Mansally (ejected 17) - Luis Gil, Kyle Beckerman, Ned Grabavoy - Javier Morales (Yordany Alvarez 81) - Robbie Findley (Lovel Palmer 21), Alvaro Saborio (Olmes Garcia 85). TEAM NEWS  RSL return to action following a two-week layoff from game play, after the 1-1 draw vs. FC Dallas on Oct. 5. The last time they had a break of that length, after the last meeting with Portland (a 4-2 win Aug. 30), they lost their next two matches. “We didn't come back sharp from the last break,” defender Nat Borchers said. “So we really need a good week of training.”  The only time the Timbers were in first place in the Western Conference this season, they were tied with Real Salt Lake (following the games of June 23). Since the start of July, RSL had held the top spot in the West for all but one week, before Portland’s win in Seattle.  “This is what starts rivalries,” RSL head coach Jason Kreis said. “Really stressful matches that mean something. Somebody taking the lead in the conference at that time or an Open Cup game.”  The visit to Portland also concludes RSL’s Cascadia tour over the last month. RSL’s last two away matches have been at Seattle (a 2-0 loss Sept. 13) and Vancouver (a 1-0 win Sept. 28).  Alvaro Saborio scored his 11th goal of the season, his first since Aug. 30, in netting the lone goal vs. FC Dallas. Saborio has scored at least 11 goals in each of his four MLS seasons.  “He’s big-time, just big-time. I thought he had a really nice night. Everything he did with the ball was fantastic – his touches, his holding [the ball] up for our players to get forward, the run he made and to get the play finished off was great,” said Kreis. “We’re really pleased with how he played, just in time to send him back to Costa Rica.”  Luis Gil played the full match in a midfield role for RSL, the first time since April he’s played the full 90 minutes in back-to-back matches.  “Luis is in really good form, and has been since before the Vancouver game, where he was electric,” Kreis said. “I was really disappointed not to have him for the Open Cup Final – I really think he would have made a difference. Tonight, again, he put in a ton of work defensively, and was so very close to doing really special things.”  Chris Schuler made his second consecutive league start after a nearly five-month layoff because of injury, partnering with Nat Borchers in central defense.  “I thought he was super. He was johnny-on-the-spot on a few crosses in the first half, and in the second half he was calm enough to adjust the ball back to his ‘keeper in the [six-yard-box]. He looks like the old Chris Schuler,” Kreis said.  Said Borchers: “I felt the defensive effort was good. Everyone worked their butts off from Saborio to the midfielders to the backs. We were down a man for 75 minutes and that’s always tough. There’s always going to be situations where things break down, but I thought that we covered well for each other and worked our butts off.”  Real will be without Javier Morales for the trip to Portland, suspended with yellow card accumulation. “Javi's a great individual player,” Ned Grabavoy said. “A guy that can unlock things kind of out of nowhere. I don't know what the change will be, but obviously we all need to try to pick things up in the midfield and try to create some chances and be dangerous in the final third. Because that's really what Javier does for us.”

HEAD COACH CALEB PORTER A leading candidate for MLS Coach of the Year, Caleb Porter was named the Timbers head coach on Aug. 29, 2012, and joined the club following seven seasons as the head coach at the University of Akron (2006-12). He finished his time at Akron with a career mark of 123-18-17 and owned the highest winning percentage (0.832) among all active Division I coaches. Porter has helped lead the Timbers to a positive result in 27 of the team’s 32 matches this year, setting a club-record, 15game unbeaten stretch from March 16-June 23. A two-time MLSsoccer.com Coach of the Week pick (Week 6, Week 9), he set the MLS record for a first-year head coach with 15 straight undefeated games. Porter has also guided the club to a current, 14-game home unbeaten streak. Porter built Akron men’s soccer into a perennial national championship contender, leading the Zips to five consecutive trips to the NCAA tournament’s Round of 16 (2008-12), back-to-back NCAA College Cup appearances in 2009 and 2010, and the school’s first national title in any sport in 2010. In all, he guided Akron to seven Mid-American Conference (MAC) regular-season championships and five MAC Tournament titles. Porter set multiple NCAA records at Akron, including a 48-match, home unbeaten streak (44-0-4) from 2008-11 and a 47-match unbeaten streak (44-0-3) in conference play from 2006-12. From Kalamazoo, Mich., Porter garnered numerous honors while at Akron, including NSCAA National Coach of the Year in 2009. He was a three-time NSCAA All-Ohio Coach of the Year (2008-09, 2011) and received MAC Coach of the Year honors six straight years from 2007-12. Porter became the fastest coach in program history to reach 100 career wins, accomplishing the feat in just 126 matches. He is also among the fastest all-time in NCAA history to the century mark, reaching the milestone in fewer games than collegiate Hall of Fame and current MLS coaches Bruce Arena (140; Virginia) and Sigi Schmid (136; UCLA). While at Akron, Porter recruited and developed more than a dozen Zips players who have gone on to professional careers, many plying their trade in Major League Soccer. He had an MLS-record five former players selected in the first round of the 2011 MLS SuperDraft and seven selected overall that year. Under Porter’s guidance, Portland’s Darlington Nagbe and former Akron standout Teal Bunbury were recipients of the MAC Hermann Trophy, awarded to the nation’s top collegiate player. Porter also served as the head coach of the U.S. U-23 Men’s National Team during 2012 CONCACAF Olympic qualifying and spent three years as an assistant coach on the U.S. U-18 National Team from 2009-11. Prior to joining Akron, Porter was an assistant coach for six years (2000-05) at Indiana University, helping the school make six NCAA tournament appearances, win back-to-back national championships in 2003 and 2004 and claim five Big Ten Conference titles. As a player, Porter was the 27th overall pick by the San Jose Clash in the 1998 MLS College Draft. He spent time with San Jose and the Tampa Bay Mutiny before a knee injury ended his playing career in 2000. Porter also played for the U.S. National B Team from 1996-97, winning a bronze medal at the 1997 World University Games. He had a successful collegiate playing career at Indiana, where he was a three-year captain, a threetime All-Big Ten honoree and a four-year letter winner. Porter led the Hoosiers to four conference titles, four NCAA tournament appearances – twice advancing to the College Cup. As a senior, Porter captained IU to 23 consecutive wins before losing to eventual national champion UCLA in the national semifinals and was the runner-up for the 1997 Hermann Trophy. Porter graduated from Indiana in 1998 with a degree in sports management. He and his wife, Andrea, have three children – two sons, Colin and Jake, and a daughter, Stella Jane.

MATCH DAY PREVIEW The Timbers enter Saturday’s match poised to capture their first-ever MLS Cup playoff berth with a win or a draw against Real Salt Lake. Portland has built a 14-game unbeaten streak at JELD-WEN Field, including a 1-0 win over rival Seattle Sounders FC on Oct. 13. The Timbers have not conceded a goal at home for 360 minutes. In fact, the last goal Portland conceded at home was a second-half stoppage time equalizer by Real Salt Lake substitute Cole Grossman on Aug. 21. Portland, which moved into first place in the Western Conference with its win over Seattle, is tied for the Supporters’ Shield lead with New York (53pts). Overall, the Timbers haven’t lost in six straight games. Real Salt Lake has earned a 2-2-1 record over the last five games and are unbeaten in back-toback games. The club will be without leading scorer Javier Morales (caution accumulation) and forward Abdoulie Mansally (red card suspension) for Saturday’s match in Portland.

REAL SALT LAKE AT PORTLAND TIMBERS SATURDAY, OCT. 19, 2013 ALL-TIME SERIES NOTES The Timbers and Real Salt Lake have met seven times in the MLS series dating back to the 2011 season. Portland has earned a 1-4-2 overall record against the 2009 MLS Cup champions in the MLS series, along with a 0-1-0 mark in U.S. Open Cup play. At home, Portland is 1-1-1, earning a win over Real Salt Lake on April 30, 2011, in the first match between the two teams. As part of the Timbers season-opening, five-game home winning streak in 2011, forward Kenny Cooper netted the game-winning goal in the 22nd minute off assists from Kalif Alhassan and Jack Jewsbury. Portland’s defense held Real Salt Lake to just three shots on goal in winning its third straight game at home to kick off the 2011 MLS campaign. The Timbers are winless in six straight league games against Real Salt Lake, although two of those four losses have come by just one goal. Most recently in MLS play at JELD-WEN Field, Portland conceded the game-tying goal in the third minute of second-half stoppage time for a 3-3 draw at JELD-WEN Field on Aug. 21. On the road, a 10-man Timbers side fell 4-2 against Real Salt Lake on Aug. 30 at Rio Tinto Stadium. Portland also faced Real Salt Lake this year on Aug. 7 in the semifinals of the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup. After conceding two goals, Timbers midfielder Diego Valeri pulled one back with a header in the 90th minute, but time ran out on the comeback attempt as Real Salt Lake earned a 2-1 win and advanced to the U.S. Open Cup final. The two clubs have combined for 12 goals in two regular-season matches during the 2013 season, including six at JELD-WEN Field.

LAST TIME VS. REAL SALT LAKE Forward João Plata scored a goal and recorded two assists to help Real Salt Lake earn a 4-2 win over the Timbers, who played shorthanded in the second half following a red card right before halftime, at Rio Tinto Stadium on Aug. 30. Real Salt Lake scored twice in the opening 15 minutes, but the Timbers fought back when forward Darlington Nagbe scored in the 31st minute to cut the deficit, 2-1, at halftime. Forward Javier Morales factored in both goals for Real Salt Lake in the second half, as the home side took a 4-1 lead in the 67th minute. The Timbers found a goal in the 78th minute to pull one back as a hard shot on target by forward Jose Valencia set up Sal Zizzo for a goal off the rebound.

REAL SALT LAKE AT PORTLAND TIMBERS SATURDAY, OCT. 19, 2013 SCOUTING REAL SALT LAKE The 2009 MLS Cup champions, Real Salt Lake has been one of the league’s standard-bearers for years, earning 15 or more wins in each of the last four seasons. Head coach Jason Kreis’s squad is in the thick of the MLS Cup playoffs hunt again this season, currently in second place with 52 points. Despite winning just four of their first 10 games in 2013, Real Salt Lake built an eight-game unbeaten streak from May 19-July 13, including four straight wins. Midfielder Javier Morales leads the club in scoring with 26 points (8g, 10a), while forward Álvaro Saborío’s 11 goals (in just 14 games) is first on the team.

PLAYOFF PUSH The Timbers are able to clinch their first-ever MLS Cup playoff berth with a win or a draw on Saturday against Real Salt Lake. However, Portland can also clinch a berth with a Colorado Rapids loss or draw against Vancouver on Saturday (3 p.m. Pacific), or with a San Jose loss or draw against the LA Galaxy on Sunday. Portland is six points clear of sixth-place San Jose in the standings.

MIDFIELD MAESTRO Midfielder Diego Valeri, one of the team’s main playmakers in the center of the field, has earned 12 assists on the season, which is tied for the league lead, and makes him the first Timbers MLS player to record 10 or more assists in a single season. He is just the second Timbers player since 2001 to record 10 or more assists in a single season; Hugo Alcaraz-Cuellar recorded 12 assists in 2005 for the second-division Timbers.

SECOND-HALF THREAT Portland has scored 31 goals in the second half of games this season, including 12 goals during the first 15 minutes following the halftime break and 15 goals in the final 15 minutes of the game. Portland’s 31 second-half goals rank second in the league. On the defensive side, the Timbers have conceded 16 goals in the final 45 minutes this season, which is second fewest in MLS.

OFF THE WOODWORK According to the Elias Sports Bureau, midfielder Diego Valeri has struck the woodwork with five shots this season, tied for the most in MLS. Despite the close calls, Valeri still leads the Timbers with 28 points (8g, 12a).

TAKES A HIT AND KEEPS GOING Midfielder/forward Darlington Nagbe is the most fouled player in MLS, suffering 77 fouls through 32 games this season. Yet, the third-year professional also set the MLS Timbers single-season record with his ninth goal in a 2-2 draw with Vancouver Whitecaps FC on Oct. 6. Kenny Cooper set the previous mark (8) in 2011.

FEWEST LOSSES IN MLS The Timbers are guaranteed to finish with the fewest losses in MLS this season. Portland has lost just five matches and has earned the most draws (14) in the league. The Timbers five losses is four fewer than the next closest team. The five losses also are the fewest in MLS since the LA Galaxy lost five games in 2011 (tied for the fewest losses in a 34-game season in MLS history).

DRAMATIC TURNAROUND The Timbers have had a marked improvement in 2013. When compared to 2012, Portland has earned a 19-point improvement in points and a 38-goal improvement in goal differential, tied for the third biggest turnaround in MLS history.

ON A ROLL AT JELD-WEN FIELD Portland is unbeaten in its last 14 matches (11-0-3) at JELD-WEN Field. The team extended its home unbeaten streak with a 1-0 win against Pacific Northwest-rival Seattle on Oct. 13. The Timbers recorded an MLS-club record streak of six straight shutouts at JELD-WEN Field from April 6-June 23. Portland’s home shutout streak came to an end against the LA Galaxy on July 13, setting the MLS club-home record of 587 minutes without conceding a goal, spanning eight league games from March 9-July 13.

UPCOMING MILESTONES Midfielder Diego Valeri is one assist shy of tying the club’s all-time MLS career record of 13 assists. Valeri is currently tied for the league lead with 12 assists. Valeri’s assists total ranks fifth most all-time for a first-year MLS player. Defender Futty Danso is two starts shy of his milestone 50th career MLS start. Danso enters Saturday’s match with 48 career MLS starts, and with two matches remaining in the season, could reach the milestone on Oct. 26 at Chivas USA. Goalkeeper Donovan Ricketts is one win short of the 60th in his MLS career. Ricketts notched his 59th win on Oct. 13 against Seattle. Defender/midfielder Jack Jewsbury’s next goal will be the 25th of his MLS career. Midfielder Ben Zemanski’s next assist with be the 10th of his MLS career.

IRON MAN Timbers midfielder/forward Darlington Nagbe has started a Timbers MLS-club record 46 straight games for the team dating back to the 2012 MLS season. In fact, Nagbe has played in 65 of the team’s 66 regular-season games since the start of the 2012 season. Nagbe is the club’s MLS career leader with 17 goals and 93 appearances.

TIMBERS TAKE OVER FIRST PLACE IN WIN The Timbers moved into first place in the Western Conference and are now tied with the New York Red Bulls in the lead for the Supporters’ Shield following a 1-0 win over Cascadia-rival Seattle Sounders FC before a sellout crowd of 20,674 at JELD-WEN Field on Oct. 13. The Timbers stretched their current unbeaten run to six games with the victory and are unbeaten in their last 14 league games at JELD-WEN Field. Midfielder Kalif Alhassan struck for the decisive goal in the 45th minute, giving Portland a fourth straight win at home in its 100th match as an MLS club.

TIMBERS RESERVES END SEASON WITH LOSS Forward David Estrada recorded a goal and an assist as the Seattle Sounders FC Reserves defeated the Portland Timbers Reserves 4-1 in the 2013 MLS Reserve League season finale for both teams before 3,209 fans at JELD-WEN Field on Oct. 14. Timbers Rerserves forward Sebastian Rincón recorded a goal for Portland in the 54th minute. The Timbers Reserves finished the 2013 MLS Reserve League season with a 4-7-3 overall mark.

FORTRESS With the win over Seattle, the Timbers are unbeaten in 16 straight conference games at JELD-WEN Field (11-0-5) dating back to 2012, including a 9-0-2 mark in 2013. Portland’s last home loss to a Western Conference opponent was July 28, 2012. Portland, which leads the league with 10 home shutouts this season, has not allowed more than three shots on goal in a match during its current home shutout streak.

HOW DOES 2013 COMPARE?:

ON WARNING: DF Abdoulie Mansally MF Javier Morales

A year ago, RSL set a new club record for wins in a season (with 17) and saw Jason Kreis’ team capture a franchisehigh 57 points, surpassing the 56 captured during the 2010 30-game season ... The team’s record points-pergame average of 1.87 set in 2010 was unassailable, while 2012’s record-setting goal haul has been shattered ...

SIX POINTS NEEDED FOR SUPP SHIELD SHOUT:

This season’s key numbers as season enters final 2 games:

SUSPENDED: DF Abdoulie Mansally (returns in Playoffs) MF Javier Morales (returns 10/23 v CHV)

RSL concludes its two-week late-season break with a pair of games in the next 5 days, traveling to Portland Saturday and hosting Chivas USA on Wednesday needing the full six available points to possibly secure the 2013 Supporters Shield hardware, the #1 seed in the West and the 2014/15 CONCACAF Champions League berth denied by the Oct. 1 US Open Cup Final loss ...

FAMILIARITY BREEDING CONTEMPT?:

Saturday’s RSL @ PDX match will be the clubs’ 4th meeting of the season - after seeing each other 3 times in 24 days back in August - and 2nd at JELD-WEN FIeld, RSL posting a 2-0-1 mark against the Timbers thus far in 2013 ... RSL won at home in the Open Cup Semifinal, 2-1, back on August 7 in a game that saw FW Alvaro Saborio score early and running mate Joao Plata late, prior to a 90’ Diego Valeri rebound ... on August 21, RSL burst out to a 2-1 halftime lead on goals from Nat Borchers and Javier Morales, but it was a shorthanded equalizer from substitute Cole Grossman in the 93rd minute that allowed RSL to rescue a road point at Jeld-Wen in an intense 3-3 draw that saw Timbers captain Will Johnson and RSL internationals Kyle Beckerman, Nick Rimando and Saborio out of action ... Back at Rio Tinto Stadium on August 30, RSL took an early 2-0 lead before Nagbe brilliance cut the advantage in half, but a Zemanski red just before half enabled RSL to see 4 different players score in a dominant 4-2 home win, RSL paced by Plata’s goal and 2 assists ... Could a playoff series be in the offing to bolster the burgeoning rivalry? ... RSL saw Seattle 5 times a year ago in regular / postseason play, and played Columbus 4 times in MLS / CONCACAF action in 2011 ...

RAREFIED AIR OF SUSTAINED SUCCESS:

The Sept. 29 win @ VAN put RSL at both the 15-win and 50-point plateaus for the FOURTH consecutive season, something no MLS club had accomplished in the post-shootout era (LA Galaxy 2010-13 joined RSL with Wednesday’s win over Montreal) ... D.C. United’s 2005/06/07 teams, as well as Los Angeles Galaxy 2010/11/12 joined RSL 2010-12 as the only teams to have put together three straight 15-win / 50-point seasons ...

LONGEST ACTIVE POSTSEASON STREAK:

RSL’s current streak of 5 consecutive MLS Cup Playoff berths is the longest active run of postseason competition, and can extend to 6 with any of the following: • • •

WIN at PDX Saturday; TIE at PDX AND a Rapids LOSS v. VAN Saturday; Earthquakes LOSS or TIE vs. LA Saturday

RSL’s 5-year run ties LA, CHI, DC & KC for the 3rdlongest streak in the post-shootout MLS era, while NE had 8 consecutive years and NY 6 since 2000 ... Only the triumvirate of Western elite RSL, Seattle and Los Angeles have advanced to Playoffs each of the last four seasons ...

FAMILIAR FACES ON THE WASATCH:

Back on August 7, prior to the Open Cup Semifinal, the return of former RSL culture-changer Will Johnson (2008-12) garnered all headlines, but another trio of Timbers once called Utah their MLS home ... FW Ryan Johnson (2006), DF David Horst (2008-10) and DF Rauwshan McKenzie (2010-11) now represent the Rose City ... Ryan Johnson was drafted by RSL back in 2006 out of Oregon State before being traded to Chicago Fire in exchange for DF Jack Stewart, while McKenzie was waived prior to the 2012 season and spent most of the last 18 months with Chivas USA ... Horst was claimed by Portland in the 2011 expansion draft by Portland, which also selected Robbie Findley before trading his rights back to RSL prior to this season ...

BLISTERING RSL ATTACK ON DISPLAY:

The offensive output of the 4-2 win over Portland back on August 30 marked the fourth consecutive match (across all competitions) that RSL reached the 2+ goal threshold, as well as in five of six matches, 8 of 10 and 19 of the last 23 matches dating from May 1 - Sept. 1 ... Since losing at home on April 27 to Los Angeles (0-2), RSL has posted a 15-4-4 record across league and Open Cup play during a red-hot Summer ... In that span, RSL has outscored opponents 57-31 ... The August 30th 4-2 win over Portland and the team’s 4-0 win over Columbus on Aug. 24 mark the first time in RSL history that the team has scored 4+ goals in consecutive regular-season matches ...

ROLLIN’ 4X4 v TIMBERS:

Last time these teams met, RSL saw four goals by four different players in the 4-2 home win (Gil, Plata, Morales & Saborio), the 2nd time this season that has happened (5-2 home win over Charleston in U.S. Open Cup play Plata, Morales, Sandoval & Stephenson) ... RSL saw 4 different players score in the same game three times in the 2010 season, including Sept. 15, 2010, in a 4-1 home CCL win over Toronto (Saborio, Beckerman, Olave & Paulo Junior) ... Back in April, 2009, RSL saw 6 different players score in the 2nd half of a 6-0 home win over NE, in the most prolific and diverse scoring period in club history ...

PLATITA SERVES IT UP ON SILVER PLATTER:

Real Salt Lake forward Joao Plata notched two assists on Aug. 30 against Portland, giving him a total of eight assists in MLS play, good for 5th in the league ... The 21-year-old Ecuadorian finds himself on the assist leaderboard, despite only starting in 16 of the club’s 29 MLS games ...

PORTLAND, OR

2012 REWIND: 3-GAME RSL SWEEP of PDX: A year ago, RSL swept the MLS season series between the clubs, wrapping a pair of one-goal wins over Portland around a dominant 3-0 home win - courtesy of an Alvaro Saborio hat trick, at the time just the 3rd in club history ... That sweep and the Open Cup semi puts RSL at 4-1-3 all-time against PDX across all comps ...

Only one other time in its now 284-game MLS history has RSL gone unbeaten in three games against the same opponent in the same season, posting a 2-0-1 mark against San Jose back in 2008 ... RSL also earned 7 points in 2007 against Colorado, but also saw a loss in the clubs’ 4 total meetings that year ... This year, RSL had a shot at winning all 3 games against SEA, SJ and CHV, but failed in the final game of each opportunity for 3-game sweeps against the Sounders and Earthquakes - a chance comes on Wednesday against 2005 expansion brethren Chivas USA at Rio Tinto Stadium ...

MORE HISTORY vs TIMBERS:

Back in 2011, RSL failed to defeat the Timbers in either meeting, dropping an 0-1 decision in its first-ever visit to Oregon, a Kenny Cooper header just before halftime dooming RSL 72 hours following the CCL Final loss to Monterrey ... On the final day of 2011, just 72 hours after Portland was eliminated from postseason contention at DC, an 89’ Futty Danso goal salvaged a 1-1 draw for the Timbers at Rio Tinto Stadium ...

SABORIO THE BOSS OF PORTLAND:

RSL FW Alvaro Saborio - the team’s all-time leading scorer with 65 goals in 110 games across all comps for the Claret/Cobalt - has regained form heading into Saturday, scoring his 8th goal in 15 2014 World Cup Qualifiers for his Costa Rican National Team, to go with 13 goals in 17 games (all comps) this season for RSL the highest strike rate in MLS ... Saborio has 7 goals in 6 games all-time against the Timbers, scoring in each Rio Tinto Stadium meeting this year to go along with his hat trick last July in Utah ... Sabo also scored in Oct. 2011 at the RioT in a 1-1 draw, as well as tallying his lone Jeld-Wen Field score in the 3-2 RSL win in March 2012 ... Saborio scored a short-handed goal for RSL back on Oct. 5 at home v DAL in a return for the first time in over a month of MLS action since a left calf strain suffered during international duty with Costa Rica has caused him to miss RSL losses 9/13 @ SEA and 9/21 v SJ ... Despite playing in just 14 MLS games this season, Saborio has scored 11 goals for a league-leading strike rate of 0.83 per game ... Saborio also has 2 goals in 3 Open Cup games ...

RIMANDO FIRST TO 200 CAREER GAMES:

HISTORIC ROAD WINS IN 2013:

Former RSL MF Andy Williams - now the team’s Head Scout - was the previous appearance leader for RSL, with 189 games played from 2005-11 for the Utah club, while current Captain Kyle Beckerman, DF Nat Borchers and DF Chris Wingert each have 170+ reg. season games played for the club ...

RSL has won 5 of its last 10 away from home (at TOR, at CHV, at NE and at DAL, with only stoppage-time stunners at MTL and at NY shocking RSL), also snapping its Canadian “donut” during the stretch, winning on June 29 in Toronto ... RSL has still never won in Washington, D.C. (9 MLS or Open Cup attempts), Philadelphia (3 draws) or Houston (0-8-1 all-time) ...

RSL GK Nick Rimando is slated to make his 200th career MLS regular-season appearance for the Claret/Cobalt Saturday night in Portland, becoming the first player in the club’s nine seasons to reach the bicentennial mark ... Rimando also has 15 CONCACAF, 14 playoff and 3 US Open Cup appearances for the team, which acquired him from New York just prior to the 2007 season ...

Rimando’s last win? - Aug. 30 v POR, giving everyone’s “homeboy” 84 RSL wins and 71 clean sheets for the Utah side ...

TAKING THE SHOW ON THE ROAD:

RSL now owns 21 of its 52 points this season courtesy a 6-7-3 road record through 16 away matches, still possibly surpassing the club’s 6-7-4 (22 point) mark on the road in MLS play last year, setting a new club record for road points for the historically road-weary side ... RSL is one of two MLS clubs at this point in 2013 to own an even goal +/- away from home, with an MLS-high 26 road goals (nearly 50% of the season total) ... (Sporting KC also has 18 road points, with an even goal difference)

FIGURING OUT THE FAKE STUFF:

The Sept. 13 loss @ SEA snapped a 5-game unbeaten run on artificial turf, on which RSL won two weeks later at Vancouver, will play again Oct. 19 at Portland and perhaps at some point in the Playoffs ... RSL’s greatest glory has come on the fake stuff, winning MLS Cup 2009 in a shootout against LA at what was then known as Qwest Field in Seattle ... In 2011, RSL emerged from two home-and-home knockout series with turf results in the second leg: the 2010/11 CONCACAF Champions League Semifinal series with a 1/2 road loss at Saprissa, courtesy of the valued Jamison Olave road goal; and the MLS Cup Playoffs West Semifinal against Seattle with an 0/2 loss ... All-time, RSL owns a woeful record on turf, as the team is now 7-15-12 in all competitions on fake grass, being outscored 31-58 … This season, RSL is now 2-1-2 on turf, with a 2-1 road win at Gillette Stadium at NE sandwiched between a 1-1 draw at Vancouver in April and last month’s 3-3 draw at Portland, prior to the 0-2 Seattle debacle and the late Sept. 1-0 win at VAN ...

MORE ROAD PERSPECTIVE:

The Sept. 28 away win at VAN improved RSL’s all-time MLS reg. season road mark to 31-77-34 (.325; 145 GF / 226 GA) through 142 all-time road contests in League play … Since Jason Kreis took over in May, 2007, RSL’s MLS road mark is slowly rising at 27-53-29, meaning that RSL earns a road point over 50% of the time under Jason’s guidance ...

Back on July 13, Jason Kreis’ team weathered the early storm at Dallas to record a 3-0 road win, breaking its “Texas Hex” to win on Lone Star soil for the first time ever in 23 attempts, courtesy of a Javier Morales game-winning goal, heroics from Josh Saunders and Jeff Attinella in the net and insurance strikes from Ned Grabavoy & Olmes Garcia ...

RSL’s 5-win total on the road so far this season equals the 2011 mark and bests every year except 2012, while the 17-point total is better than any of the 2005-09 campaigns and just one win shy of the 2010/11 records of 19 points ... The new team mark of 6 road wins last year was one better than in 2011, exceeding the four achieved in 2010, and more than doubling the two earned in each of the 2007-09 seasons …

CLUB SCORING RECORD SHATTERED:

Despite the recent Sept. 13 shutout suffered at Seattle - the first time in 23 games across all comps that RSL failed to find the back of the net - RSL still owns a league-leading 55 goals scored on the season, 8 more than last year’s previous club mark ... With 2 games remaining, RSL owns a +15 goal differential, 10 shy of the league and club mark set by RSL back in 2010 (+25) ... The 23-game scoring streak (including 19 straight in MLS play) nearly tripled the club’s previous record (8 games) for avoiding the shutout ... Those goal scored numbers could prove to be a critical MLS Cup Playoff tiebreaker regarding seeding possibilities in October/ November ...

MASSIVE OPPORTUNITY FOR LUIS GIL:

RSL MF Luis Gil was available for selection on Oct. 5 against Dallas after enduring a crazy 72 hours that saw him dominate the midfield in the previous 1-0 win at Vancouver, charter back Saturday night with the team, undergo an emergency appendectomy late Sunday night, train lightly Monday, miss Tuesday’s Open Cup Final and then declare himself ready for the shorthanded 1-1 Dallas game ... Gil will likely fill in for maestro Javier Morales at the #10 spot, due to Morales’ yellow-card accumulation suspension that will cause him to miss the Portland match ... Gil’s recent MLS form has been the finest of his four-year professional career, earning him a chance to stamp his presence in a crucial, must-win “rivalry” type of match, with Shield and playoff implications ... Also out Saturday is outside back Abdoulie Mansally, whose 15’ red card on a late tackle at midfield on Oct. 5 forced RSL to be happy with a 1-1 home draw; Mansally also out in Wednesday’s 2013 finale ...

SPATE OF RED CARDS ONCE AGAIN:

Mansally’s red card 2 weeks ago vs DAL caused RSL to suffer its third disciplinary committee suspension of the season, MF Yordany Alvarez previously suspended for his 4’ tackle on Tim Cahill on July 20 ... Alvarez later received a straight red in the 78’ at Portland on Aug. 21, the club’s 5th red of the season and last ejection prior to Mansally last time out ... RSL had seen its outside backs ejected in three of its four games prior to 7/27 @NY, with veteran DF Chris Wingert tossed in the 66’ v KC, on the heels of USMNT DF Tony Beltran seeing red in Toronto on June 29 and replacement Lovel Palmer incredulously sent to the showers on July 3 ... The Wingert ejection was the 5th of the 25-game campaign across all comps this season, as MF Yordany Alvarez was ejected after a 2nd yellow card for diving back on March 23 at Dallas ... DF Carlos Salcedo was sent off for a 2nd yellow in stoppage time on May 8 at NE, but that card was rescinded due to mistaken identity ... The Alvarez red on March 23 was RSL’s first in 18 MLS regular-season and playoff games ... RSL went through a period last season where it saw a total of 5 reds in 21 games (MLS and CCL), with 3 of those ejections coming in games at San Jose ... The club suffered an RSL-record 7 ejections in 2011, after a team-best ZERO during the 2010 campaign until Javier Morales received two yellow cards at Dallas in Leg #1 of that year’s West Semis ... All-time, RSL now has been victim of 50 MLS red cards, succumbing to a -19 goal difference in a total of 1177 minutes playing a man down … With the ejections of FW Fabian Espindola and DF Jamison Olave last April 21 at SJ, RSL was reduced to nine men for the only time in the nine-year organization’s now 284game MLS history, and just the second in 335 games overall (including MLS postseason matches, CONCACAF Champions League games and Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup matches) ...

ANOTHER CRUSHING HOME CUP FINAL:

The October 1st 0-1 loss in the 100th LHUSOC Final was eerily reminiscent of 0-1 home losses in the 2008 West Final and the 2011 CONCACAF Champions League Final, Jason Kreis’ club unable to overcome late firsthalf goals despite dominating possession, hitting posts and dictating tempo ... Tuesday’s loss came in RSL’s 13th HOME elimination game in the club’s five-year history at Rio Tinto Stadium, advancing only once each in CONCACAF Champions League and Open Cup annals (prior to 2013) ... RSL has failed to win in 3 MLS Cup Playoff elimination games at home ... Excluding the 4 early-round games in this year’s Open Cup run, RSL has just a 2-5-2 home record in elimination games ...

RESERVES BOUNCE BACK @ VANCOUVER:

While RSL sought to recover from the Open Cup Final loss, the club was able to snap a 2-game losing streak in league play with a win Sept. 28 at Vancouver, as a reserve-laden team traveled to the Pacific Northwest to win 1-0 over the Whitecaps and return RSL to the top of the Western Conference and re-insert itself into the Supporters Shield conversation ... An early goal from rookie FW Devon Sandoval - his 3rd of the MLS season, to go with 3 in Open Cup play and 4 in reserve action - held up due to stellar defense for the final 81 minutes ... GK Jeff Attinella earned his first MLS shutout and victory, while the return of centerback Chris Schuler - out since May 11 with foot issues - and standout performances from DF Abdoulie Mansally and DF Lovel Palmer, among others, paced RSL to an unexpected road win ... Prior to the VAN win, RSL had lost 0-2 at Seattle on Sept. 13 and dropped a rare home game, 1-2, to San Jose on Sept. 21 ...

BACK AT THE RIO TINTO FORTRESS:

Following that Sept. 13 loss at Seattle, RSL returned home Sept. 21 at a sold-out Rio Tinto Stadium to host San Jose in a critical Western Conference matchup, Jason Kreis’ club dropping a 1-2 decision in a game that saw the club boss 70% of the possession and complete 100 more passes than the Earthquakes attempted ... However, RSL saw ‘Quakes FW Steven Lenhart win a pair of headers 4 minutes apart - sandwiched around a Javier Morales goal - to determine the final margin, as RSL was unable to crack the 11-man shell SJ employed after gaining that 2-1 lead in the 21st minute ... That disappointing loss - made worse later in the night when LA and SEA tied 1-1 - was only the club’s 3rd at home this season in all competitions, dropping Jason Kreis’ team to 13-3-4 (42/20 GF/GA), still boasting a 73-15-23 mark in its last 111 home games dating back to the beginning of 2008, Kreis’ first full season ... In that span, RSL has outscored opponents by 130 goals (212-82), with a 58-12-25 reg. season mark (174/66), 6-1-1 CCL record (17/5), 3-1-1 playoffs (5/2), 5-2-0 Open Cup (16/9) and 2-0-1 int’l exhibition (5/2) ... All-time, RSL is now 73-32-38 in MLS regular-season play during 8+ seasons at home, outscoring opponents 234-139 ...

DOS-A-CERO SYMMETRY FOR RSL, SEA:

Back on June 22, RSL defeated Seattle at home in a comprehensive 2-0 victory that vaulted the Utah side into first place in the Western Conference, a perch in which it resided until last Friday, when an 0-2 loss at the Sounders’ Century Link Field home dropped RSL into 2nd place for the first time in 11 weeks ... RSL had been unbeaten in its last 6 regular-season matches against Seattle, yet was eliminated by the Sounders a year ago in the 2012 MLS Cup Playoff Western Conference Semifinals ... A Mario Martinez blast in the 83’ at Rio Tinto Stadium a year ago allowed Seattle to return the playoff elimination favor RSL bestowed upon Sounders FC back in 2011 ... Both teams have qualified for the playoffs every year since 2009, with RSL going 67-44-36 in regular season play over that period compared to Seattle’s 67-39-41 ...

VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE (GOALS):

Including five Open Cup matches, the 58 RSL goals in the last 27 games have been scored from 17 different sources - by 16 different players - surpassing the club’s total number of goalscorers for the entirety of 2012 ... The latest man to newly contribute to the RSL attack was MF Cole Grossman, whose equalizer at Portland last month was the former Duke standout’s second-ever MLS goal - and his first for RSL ... RSL DF Nat Borchers also scored Aug. 21 in Portland to add his name to the list of 2013 scorers - now 16 across all competitions - as only 10 players scored for RSL in MLS, U.S. Open Cup and CONCACAF Champions League play a year ago during the 2012 season ...

JELD-WEN FIELD

PORTLAND, OR

The most remarkable contribution could be from DF Tony Beltran and his partner at outside back Chris Wingert, as the pair each scored their 2nd career professional goals in the June 26 3-0 Open Cup win ... The pair have combined for more than 30,000 MLS minutes all-time, as Beltran also scored in a 2011 RSL Open Cup win at home (v Wilmington Hammerheads), while Wingert found the back of the net in a May 2010 win at Chivas ... During its best-ever regular-season in 2010, RSL saw goals that year from a franchise-high 16 different players ... By scoring on Aug. 30, RSL midfielder Luis Gil became the sixth Claret-and-Cobalt player to reach the five goal plateau this year. Gil joins Saborio, midfielder Javier Morales, midfielder Ned Grabavoy, forward Robbie Findley and forward Olmes Garcia as the six RSL players who have found the back of the net five or more times during MLS play ... RSL only had two players hit the five goal mark in 2012 ...

KREIS PUTS PUZZLE TOGETHER:

While much has been made of RSL’s depth - 27 players seeing first-team minutes in MLS play this season, including a club-record 26 with at least one start - a deeper look explains why RSL has been so dependent on its bench: the team has seen 27 games lost so far this year to international duty, with 69 games lost due to injury and another 10 due to suspension ... By missing six players to international duty (World Cup Qualifying, Gold Cup, U-20 World Championship), RSL has seen more players lost than any club in North America (including Santo Laguna of Mexico, that country’s main contributor to WCQ) ... The list: 6 - FW Alvaro Saborio - Costa Rica WCQ / Gold Cup 5 - GK Nick Rimando - USA WCQ / Gold Cup 5- MF Kyle Beckerman - USA WCQ / Gold Cup 5 - MF Luis Gil - US Under-20 World Cup 4 - DF Tony Beltran - USA Gold Cup 2 - DF Abdoulie Mansally - The Gambia INJURY ABSENCES: 69 games (and counting*): WatsonSiriboe 16*, Saborio 12*, Schuler 11, Wingert 9, Morales 4, Borchers 3, Saunders 11*, Salcedo 2 and Gil 1 ... (DF Rich Balchan & MF John Stertzer not included here) SUSPENSIONS: 13 games: Alvarez 5 (2 red/3 disc comm), Wingert 2 (2 disc comm), Mansally 2, (1 red / 1 disc comm), Beltran 1 (red), Palmer 1 (red), Beckerman 1 (caution accumulation), Morales 1 (caution accumulation) Only MF Enzo Martinez (currently on loan at Carolina), MF John Stertzer (who did make 2 appearances), MF David Viana (waived on June 28) and DF Rich Balchan have not yet started a 2013 MLS game ... RSL had the fortune of no league games during the recent Sept. & Oct. FIFA windows, so while Kyle Beckerman, Nick Rimando (USA) and Alvaro Saborio (Costa Rica) saw extra travel, they did not miss any MLS contests purely due to the calendar ...

DIAMOND DEPARTURES FORTUITOUS:

For the 2nd time in 3 games back on July 13 in Dallas, RSL boss Jason Kreis rolled out an alternative to his preferred 4-4-2 diamond formation, RSL employing a 4-2-3-1 ... In the midfield, Javier Morales was flanked by both Luis Gil and Sebastian Velasquez ahead of D-mids Ned Grabavoy & Yordany Alvarez, with Robbie Findley deployed as a lone striker up top ... Two weeks earlier, on June 29 in Toronto, choosing to put a pair of D-mids - Captain Kyle Beckerman and understudy Alvarez - behind playmaker Morales, with two speedy wingers - Joao Plata & Olmes Garcia - on either side of target man Devon Sandoval ... These departures from the 4-4-2 diamond that has become Kreis’ RSL signature are the club’s first different looks to start a game since July, 2011, in an 0-1 loss at Dallas ... With MF Yordany Alvarez suspended Aug. 17 v HOU, the idea of pairing a D-mid next to a well-traveled and potentially exhausted Beckerman becomes more difficult ... In a 4-2-1-3 rollout at home, Kreis did place Grabavoy next to Beckerman and put Plata & Garcia on either side up high next to Alvaro Saborio, the Costa Rican converting a 38’ PK for the game’s only goal, improving RSL to a perfect 3-0-0 when Kreis departs from the diamond ...

RSL (USUALLY) CELEBRATES IF SABO SCORES:

RSL’s all-time leading scorer, Costa Rican int’l FW Alvaro Saborio, has 11 goals in only 14 MLS appearances of the season ... After the hat trick @NY in late July, Sabo earned MLS Player of the Week accolades after missing extended periods of time due to World Cup Qualifying, Gold Cup and injuries ... Despite the heartbreak of the 3-4 loss at NY, RSL still owns a dominating 35-6-9 all-time record in all comps when Sabo scores ... The 4th-year MLS player joins Kreis (2005 Open Cup) and Robbie Findley (2009 MLS) as the lone “hat trick heroes” in RSL’s nine-year, 334-game history across all competitions ... In all comps, Sabo now owns a team-record 66 goals in 111 games, w/ 21 gamewinning goals and 15 multi-goal matches (17 and 20 in 93 MLS games) ... Prior to last year’s Aug. 18 1-2 L v DAL, the two most recent losses when Sabo finds the back of the net were against LA, June 20 of last year and also in the 2011 West Final at LA ... The only loss prior to 9/24/11 at DC was the rain-soaked 4-5 loss at Cruz Azul in Aug. 2011 ... RSL is only 19-28-17 when Sabo plays and does not score, but 17-8-6 when he is unavailable due to suspension, injury or national team duty since his arrival in 2010 …

TICO SABO NO LONGER PERFECT ON PKS ...

On April 6 @COL, RSL’s all-time leading scorer & Costa Rican international Alvaro Saborio saw his 8’ PK attempt saved by Rapids GK Clint Irwin, snapping Sabo’s 12-for-12 streak of perfection from the spot ... In an RSL uniform, Sabo is now 11-for-12 in MLS games after beating Dynamo GK Tally Hall on Saturday, with a 4-for-4 mark in CONCACAF Champions League ... RSL’s last PK miss was 12 attempts earlier than that April 6 miss @COL, as FW Robbie Findley saw his spot kick on Sept. 9, 2010, saved @SEA by GK Kasey Keller in an eventual 0-0 draw ... All-time, RSL is now 33-for-38 from the 12-yd spot ... In addition to Saborio (2013) and Findley (2010), other RSL players to fail to convert are Javier Morales (2008), Alecko Eskandarian (2007) and Andy Williams (2006) ...

... BUT OPEN CUP HISTORY FROM SPOT IS:

With both Joao Plata and Javier Morales converting from the spot in the June 12 5-2 win over Charleston, RSL continues its perfect 6-for-6 penalty kick conversion rate in Open Cup play ... Joining the active duo are Will Johnson (1-for-1), Jason Kreis (1-for-1) and Jeff Cunningham (2-for-2) ...

CAPTAIN BECKERMAN 20th TO 300:

“KB5” is the seventh player in MLS history with RSL ties to hit 300+ appearances, joining the following as former/ current Claret-and-Cobalt players in the exclusive club (active members of the club in red): FW Jeff Cunningham (365) GK Nick Rimando (344) - RSL GK MF Chris Klein (333) MF Andy Williams (332) - RSL Head Scout MF Kyle Beckerman (323) - RSL Captain MF Carey Talley (315) FW Jason Kreis (305) - RSL Head Coach

OTHER CRITICAL MILESTONES ON HORIZON:

In addition to the recent Kreis/RSL century mark milestones, GK Nick Rimando recently became the 4th player (3rd GK) in MLS history to surpass 30,000 minutes played and has now made 340 MLS appearances (passing former RSL MF Andy Williams) ... Only Kevin Hartman (37,260) and Steve Ralston (33,142) have played more minutes than Rimando’s 30,933 ... Rimando’s next win gives him 151 in his career, extending his hold on 2nd overall (Hartman, 180), while he is now at #3 overall in saves (1,225, 139 behind 2nd-place Cannon) ... Beckerman is now #1 all-time in fouls committed with 502, surpassing former Fire/Chivas MF Jesse Marsch ... KB5 also owns sole possession of #2 in yellow cards all-time (71, 9 behind Pablo Mastroeni) ...

WALL OF THE WASATCH NICKY RIMANDO:

RSL GK Nick Rimando preserved the 3 points on May 8 by denying a Saer Sene PK during stoppage time @NE, with a yellow card accompanying an apparent handball in the box inadvertently given to the wrong player (DF Carlos Salcedo), resulting in a sending off for the 19-year old Academy product, who was cautioned for a high boot in the first half ... The saved PK was the 2nd in a span of 4 games for Rimando - he stopped Mejia in the first half of the April 20 1-0 win over Chivas ... Rimando, who extended his all-time MLS PK “denial” record to 19 career stops, has held opposing PK takers to just 41-for-60 against the former DC/MIA and current RSL netminder ... Overall, RSL ‘keepers have allowed opponents to convert only 26-of-37 attempts, with GK Nick Rimando - Major League Soccer’s most successful PK stopper - making 10 of the 11 all-time RSL stonings ... Former RSL GK Scott Garlick denied one attempt in 2006 (of the 2 he faced that season) ...

RIMANDO 2nd-EVER TO CENTURY MARK:

In this year’s 2013 regular-season opener, RSL GK Nick Rimando became just the 2nd player in MLS history (Kevin Hartman) to reach 100 career clean sheets, as the veteran recorded shutout #100 March 3 in San Jose and #105 June 29 at Toronto, 70 of which have now come in the RSL Claret-and-Cobalt ... Rimando – now in his 14th year as an MLS standout who has started in every career appearance in goal, and who won MLS Cup in 2004 with United and in 2009 with RSL – came into MLS with the Miami Fusion ... A comparison of Rimando’s various MLS stints:

RIMANDO CLEAN SHEET / ASSIST COMBO:

In that home match v VAN on May 4, RSL took the early 2nd-half lead when GK Nick Rimando watched a Nigel Reo-Coker free kick sail over his goal and quickly restarted play with a pinpoint goal kick, finding FW Joao Plata wide right 60 yards upfield ... Plata took a few touches and sent a cross onto the head of MF Luis Gil for the U.S. U-20 star’s second tally of the season ... The game-winning assist was Rimando’s 4th of his career and the 7th all-time helper in his 14th season ... However, May 4 v VAN marked only the second time the veteran combined a shutout - the 102nd of his career with a game-winning assist (8/8/09, 1-0 v SEA) ...

ALL-TIME GOAL +/- TRENDS POSITIVELY:

It took 265 all-time regular-season matches, but the May 19 4-1 victory @CHV put RSL’s all-time aggregate goal differential in MLS play deep into positive territory at the conclusion of a game, the club scoring 341 goals all-time while conceding 338 ... The May 8 loss @MTL by 2-3 score returned the club’s all-time ledger back to even, after the first-ever foray into +1 territory 3 days prior with the 2-1 win @NE ... Back on Sept. 21, 2011 in a 3-1 win at Red Bull Arena in New York, RSL briefly got its goal +/- head above water, but a late Joel Lindpere goal dropped the side to even, three days before a 1-4 road loss at D.C. United ... When Jason Kreis took over RSL four games into the club’s third season in 2007, the differential was minus-43, eventually dropping as low as minus-57 after a loss at Dallas in May, 2008 ... It took 160 regular-season matches, but RSL finally made up the difference ... The Aug. 30 4-2 win in all-time game #280 put the club at a new all-time high-water mark of +17, dropped by 2 down to +15 at present due to the recent 2-game skid ...

BECKS BRACES FOR MULTI-GOAL MADNESS:

Kyle Beckerman’s two-goal effort back on Aug. 24 allowed RSL to see its 45th multi-goal individual game in RSL history, across 335 games in all competitions [MLS (288), Playoff (14), CCL (16) & Open Cup (17)], with 17 of those 45 multi-goal games coming on the road … The list: G 2 3 2 2 2 3 2 2 3 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 3 2

When an RSL player scores 2 or more, the team is now 37-4-4 all-time … The loss 7/27 @NY was only the 2nd in RSL’s MLS history when a multi-goal game did not result in points for the team; besides the 4-5 loss at Cruz Azul in CCL (2010) and the 4-6 loss at Minn. in Open Cup (2005), the lone prior MLS loss came June 17, 2007, when Chris Brown’s brace @LA was wasted in a 2-3 setback ...

MORE MULTI-GOAL MADNESS:

In 111 MLS/CCL/Open Cup/Playoff games, Saborio’s total of 15 multi-goal matches more than doubles the total of #2 Jeff Cunningham (5) and Javier Morales/Robbie Findley/Fabian Espoindola with 4 “braces” each, while “Sabo” owns the club’s lone postseason multi-goal match, coming Fall 2011 against SEA in the West Semis ... Other RSL players to score 2+ goals: Movsisyan and Kreis (2x each), along with Paulo Junior, Will Johnson, Kyle Beckerman, Atiba Harris, Chris Brown and now Ned Grabavoy and Olmes Garcia, who have each also scored 2x in a game …

THE MYTHICAL “FIRST-CHOICE XI”:

While Kreis started the same XI in back-to-back games to open 2013, it hadn’t happened in 13 consecutive games until home games against SJ & LA in early June ... RSL rolled out the same XI just 4 times out of 41 games across all competitions last season ... How rare are back-to-back lineup duplicates for RSL? It happened only once in 45 games in 2011 (Aug 6/13) and just twice in 41 games in 2010 (June 25/July 2; July 31/Aug 7) ... Due to injuries, cards, suspensions and national-team duty a year ago, RSL boss Jason Kreis fielded his “firstchoice” starting XI for only 59 minutes last season back on May 5, a 2-1 home win over New England, a victory marred by the Will Johnson red card in the 59’ ... That occasion - the first of the year and only time in 34 MLS games in 2012, besides the July 31 CCL match at Herediano - came on nearly the one-year anniversary of the last regular-season occurance, May 7, 2011, when RSL saw Javier Morales chopped down from behind and lost until late Sept. with a horrifically broken ankle ...

Real Salt Lake’s eye towards the future was bolstered a year ago with the signing of promising goalkeeper Lalo Fernandez as the club’s third-ever Homegrown Player. The addition of Fernandez marks the second dip into the Homegrown Player well by Real Salt Lake in less than a year, following on the heels of fellow RSL-Arizona Academy product Nico Muñiz (Sept. 2011) and Donny Toia (May 2011).

After playing the second-most minutes of his career in 2011, Tony Beltran again showed why he belongs in the discussion with the best outside backs in Major League Soccer. For the second time in his career the 24-year-old made more than 20 starts and helped solidify a back line that was depleted by injuries all season long – until he unfortunately suffered one of his own, limiting his minutes in the final two months of the season.

The 20-year-old Fernandez has kept busy over the last year-and-a-half, helping the RSL-Arizona Under-18 squad begin its first season in U.S. Soccer Development Academy in

While his staunch 1-v-1 defending continued to be rock solid, the cerebral and supremely fit Beltran has also provided more consistency when jumping into the attack, his flying runs up either flank ending with dangerous service into the area more often than during his previous two seasons of play. It can’t be long until Beltran sheds the status of one of the most underrated outside defenders in Major League Soccer, but, until then, the RSL braintrust will be more than happy to unleash the mature-beyond-his-years winger upon opponents that may underestimate the UCLA product’s considerable talent and tenacity.

October 2010 and going 5-3-3 (1.00 GAA, 4 shutouts) in 11 appearances through the spring of 2011. After initially agreeing to play collegiately at the University of Wisconsin, Fernandez tacked course and tested the international waters, first spending a training stint with Mexican first division side Atlas – based in his birthplace of Guadalajara – before signing with Uruguayan power C.A. Peñarol last August. The 6-foot-3, 165-pound Fernandez has been involved in the Youth National Team set-ups of both the United States and Mexico, playing for the Mexican Under-17s and training with the U.S. Under-20s last November. The El Paso, Texas, native’s goalkeeping skills run in the family, as his father, enjoyed a career as a professional netminder in Mexico.

December 2012 saw Beltran re-up with RSL for four more years, while January saw the young DF rewarded with an invite to “Camp Klinsmann” and his first-ever US cap, starting and playing 45 minutes against Canada in a 0-0 draw. Beltran followed that up with a Gold Cup invitation, starting and playing 90 minutes in front of a home crowd in the 4-1 win over Cuba at the RioT. Beltran then earned his 1st-ever MLS All-Star selection 48 hours later.

After spending the better part of three years languishing on the bench in Chicago, Watson-Siriboe received a much-needed career reboot in June 2012 when RSL acquired him via trade with the Fire. RSL assistant coach C.J. Brown was the driving force behind the acquisition, having seen firsthand Watson-Siriboe’s physical talent and strong work ethic when the two played together in Chicago in 2010.

It’s not often that a first-round draft pick plays 15 league games in his rookie year and then gets traded in his first offseason, but that’s exactly what happened to defender Aaron Maund, who started nine MLS matches for Toronto last year before being traded to RSL for Justin Braun on Dec. 3.

Acquiring Watson-Siriboe paid off handsomely for RSL in 2012, as the UConn product played well in 12 league games and started 10 in fill-in duty for injured center backs. Watson-Siriboe – who played in more games and tallied more minutes in one half-season with RSL than he did in 2 ½ years in Chicago – was expected to get many more opportunities to shine in 2013, beginning the season as a starter with regular center back Nat Borchers out until mid-April while recovering from offseason surgery on his left quad.

Maund was a casualty of a season – and offseason – full of change in Toronto, getting shipped off shortly before his second head coach at TFC lost his job. He’ll undoubtedly have much more stability at Real Salt Lake, where he’ll learn from Head Coach Jason Kreis and Assistant/Defensive Specialist C.J. Brown as he competes for time at center back.

Unfortunately for Kwame, a mid-June reserve match on the road in Phoenix saw him suffer a torn ACL and force him out for the remainder of the 2013 season ...

Maund struggled in his first Open Cup start against Atlanta, but has rebounded to offer an excellent MLS outing against his former Toronto mates back on June 29 at BMO FIeld - a 1-0 RSL win - and battled in his 2nd RSL start, a 1-2 home loss to Kansas City . Maund will compete with both Carlos Salcedo and Brandon McDonald for minutes next to Borchers throughout August, Sept. and October, while Chris Schuler could return in late August as well.

Most players begin to think about the next stage of their careers after 13 seasons in the pros, the portion involving final contracts, farewell tours and the like. However, most players aren’t like Kyle Beckerman, who continued to improve and reach new heights for both club and country in 2012. The Claret-and-Cobalt captain led the Utah side to all-time highs in points and wins while appearing in two World Cup Qualifiers, captaining the U.S. in its January 2013 friendly against Canada and playing the full 90 in the Stars-and-Stripes’ historic August 2012 1-0 win against Mexico at the famed Estadio Azteca.

D/M FORWARD

Despite dealing with several injuries during the 2012 season, Borchers remained a rock for RSL, starting all 26 league matches that he appeared in and finishing the year sixth on the team in minutes played. Always a calming influence in the center of the Claret-and-Cobalt’s backline, the “White Rhino” brought unparalleled organization, tactical awareness and consistent play to the field last season as he helped RSL remain defensively strong. Borchers’ stabilizing presence has been even more important in 2013 as RSL began life without center back Jamison Olave, who was traded to New York along with forward Fabian Espindola in December. Unfortunately, the Pueblo, Colo. native wasn’t able to guide the backline from the jump in 2013, as he dealt with a quad injury that caused him to miss the first six games. Since then, however, Borchers has brought leadership and stabilization to a whirlwind of young centerbacks and outside backs that have seen time for RSL during the first half of the season, helping the club to one of the top two goals against averages in MLS.

RSL long had its eye on Lovel Palmer, nearly trading for the Jamaican international while he was in Portland during the 2012 season. The Claret-and-Cobalt got its man in Stage 2 of the MLS Re-Entry Draft on Dec. 14, 2012, agreeing to a deal with the 28-year-old defender/ midfielder less than a week later.

Acquired in a trade with Toronto on Jan. 30, 2013, it looks like the 20-year-old Plata could become the latest discarded MLS player to have a re-birth at Real Salt Lake. Much like RSL defender Aaron Maund, the talented Plata was a victim of some turbulence at TFC, which sent him on a loan to Ecuadorian side LDU Quito halfway through 2012 before trading him to RSL this offseason.

A former Jamaican national team teammate of RSL Head Scout Andy Williams, Palmer has primarily played right back for the Claret-and-Cobalt, backing up starter Tony Beltran and providing added depth along the left side of the backline. The arrival of Palmer and midfielder Khari Stephenson this offseason give RSL its first Jamaican players since Williams retired following the 2011 season. Palmer created the go-ahead goal back on May 11 at Montreal, his shot deflected home by Ferrari for an Own Goal to give RSL the lead. Palmer has also shown well in both MLS and Open Cup play during Beltran’s 2013 international duty and Chris Wingert’s early-season injuries that kept him out of the first 10 games.

The tiny Ecuadorian – Plata stands just 5-foot-2 and weighs in at 135 lbs. – showed very well for the Claret-and-Cobalt during preseason, giving defenders fits with his quickness, agility, skill and finishing. The Ecuadorian international is a significant addition to RSL’s revamped forward corps – look for him to provide a spark off the bench as a third forward and get an occasional spot start for lead forwards Robbie Findley and Alvaro Saborio. Plata has grown into a role of constant contribution for RSL, either as a starter or off the bench. He has seen significant minutes alongside either Findley, Olmes Garcia or Devon Sandoval, while he and Saborio formed an instant friendship in the preseason that has carried over to the field, at least when Sabo is available.

Findley scored 29 goals during his first stint with the Claret-and-Cobalt, leading the team and setting a career high with 12 goals in the 2009 MLS Cup Championship season. RSL is hoping that the 2010 World Cup veteran will be able to bring that type of production back to the Wasatch Front in the 2013 season, when he’ll lead RSL’s line alongside striker Alvaro Saborio. Findley has 5 goals through the first half of the season with RSL, tied with two others for the team lead on a balanced side. Clearly a better soccer player than he was upon his departure, Findley has rarely displayed the blinding speed he was once known for, rather choosing guile and skill to demoralize opponents and create for teammates.

Real Salt Lake brought Findley back for a second stint in Utah on Jan. 16, 2013, sending the Portland Timbers allocation money for the rights to the speedy striker, who had already signed with MLS at the time of the trade. Findley played for RSL from mid-2007 through 2010, when he left the Claret-and-Cobalt after the MLS season to join English Championship side Nottingham Forest. Portland selected the Arizona native in the expansion draft in November 2010, thereby acquiring his rights and forcing RSL to trade for them in order to bring him back to Salt Lake.

Perhaps no player in Major League Soccer was poised to have a better 2011 than Javier Morales. From the get-go, the Argentine midfield maestro was pulling the strings for a Real Salt Lake side on the cusp of international glory, his infectious attitude, quiet leadership and abundant skill helping a pioneering club earn plaudits from every corner of America’s soccer landscape. So while RSL’s disappointment at the end of its CONCACAF Champions League run in late April was a tough blow for the squad, it’s quite telling that the result’s effect on the team’s season paled in comparison to the loss of Morales to an ankle injury just 10 days after the stinging defeat. It is also telling that, during a stretch of two weeks when clumsy challenges like the one Morales suffered from felled some of MLS’ other brightest attacking talents, RSL’s playmaker vowed to come back before season’s end. Anyone who saw the incident must have thought Morales’ thoughts were wishful thinking at best, but they also weren’t witness to the hard work he put in day after day. While the air was sucked out of the building that day, Morales knew it wasn’t sucked out of the season, and he wanted to make sure he could help the squad finish the challenge it had laid down at the start of the year – add hardware to the trophy case. While that goal wouldn’t come to fruition, the comeback of Morales inspired not only his teammates, but the RSL faithful as well, who could not get enough updates on the status of “Javi” and when – not if – he would return to the field. While Morales was never back to 100% during the final six weeks of the season, he showed plenty enough to make it clear that he was closer than anyone, save himself, might have thought. But, perhaps more than anything, his comeback allowed everyone the opportunity to remember a different image of #11 at Rio Tinto Stadium in 2011 – the thunderous standing ovation he received upon entering the Sept. 28 match against Chicago in front of the largest crowd in the stadium’s history. 20,762 fans, all there to pay tribute to the heart-and-soul of RSL, to see the maestro pick up his baton once again. The start of the 2012 campaign sees Morales continuing to overcome injury, an offseason procedure to clean out bone spurs in his left foot and a right quad strain suffered during the preseason limiting him during the squad’s preparations for the upcoming season. But if 2011 proved anything, it’s that Morales will be able to overcome any challenge thrown at him … and likely sooner than anyone could imagine.

After not getting much playing time with Columbus in his first two years as a pro, Grossman is ready for a new lease on life with Real Salt Lake, which picked up the Duke University product in the November 2013 MLS Waiver Draft. The big, hard-working and aggressive midfielder will take some time to adjust from his old position in the center of the midfield to his new spot at the outside of RSL’s diamond, but he is expected to challenge for minutes once he gets settled in. The St. Louis native’s tenacious style is sure to play well with Claret-and-Cobalt fans, who never fail to appreciate a little on-field intensity. Grossman suffered a concussion in a late March match at Dallas in which he started, knocking the promising MF out of action of any kind for nearly two months. His late-summer return to health has seen Grossman contribute to the reserve side and push for minutes with the first team.

Blessed with good size and incredible speed, 20-year-old Colombian forward Olmes Garcia comes to RSL as a relatively unknown quantity. A talented but raw prospect, Garcia did well at Colombian First Division side Deportes Quindio, scoring seven goals in 47 total appearances after signing with the team as an 18-year-old in January 2011. He’ll need some time to adjust to a new country, a new team, a new language, a new culture and new tactics, but Garcia is a significant part of the Claret-and-Cobalt’s long term plan. He’ll have plenty of time to grow into a large role; he signed a five-year contract with RSL on a transfer from Quindio. On April 1 against BYU in a reserve exhibition at Rio Tinto Stadium (att: 6,335), Garcia was the star of the show, displaying speed and one-on-one ability to wow the fans. Will need to harness that raw talent and effectively utilize his skills in the framework of the team philosophy, but his MLS debut at DAL on 3/23 saw his header off a corner kick smack the left post on his first touch in the North American league.

When it came to taking advantage of an opportunity in 2011, nobody did it better than midfielder Yordany Alvarez, who parlayed his USL PRO League MVP performance for Orlando City S.C. into a quasi-starting gig that September shortly after joining Real Salt Lake on loan at the roster freeze deadline. The one-time Cuban international provided quality cover for Kyle Beckerman, whose suspensions and U.S. MNT call-ups across the last quarter of the season forced Alvarez onto the field for five contests.

As a forward there’s always pressure to perform, and in 2011 the pressure seemed to be both a blessing and a curse for Álvaro Saborío, who began the year with a new contract that heaped on the added weight of becoming Real Salt Lake’s first-ever “Designated Player” (though the title was more a technicality thanks to the transfer fees involved in obtaining his full rights). The roller-coaster season saw Saborío bag goals in bunches and in some critical moments, but also included some droughts and mountains of adversity on the national team front for his native Costa Rica.

Alvarez performed well in a limited role during the 2012 season, providing able cover at defensive mid when Claret-and-Cobalt captain Beckerman was out of the lineup. The 27-year-old Cuban made 15 league appearances in 2012, starting five times and playing a total of 500 MLS minutes. Alvarez’s role has increased in 2013, when the 2011 USL Pro League MVP has had an opportunity to play on the outside of RSL’s midfield diamond and will slot in for Beckerman when he’s away on international duty. His game-winning goal on June 29 at Toronto was MLS’ Goal of the Week, and the Cuban emigre has thrived throughout Kreis’ tactical departures from the 4-4-2 diamond.

CARLOS SALCEDO

DEFENDER

DOB: 9/29/83

After spending the second half of 2012 training with the Claret-and-Cobalt while not officially a member of the first-team, RSL-Arizona Academy product Carlos Salcedo will finally get his chance to step on the field in a MLS match this year. The 19-year-old center back still has a long way to go, but has the physical tools necessary to be successful on the professional level. Expected to log plenty of time in the expanded 2013 Reserve League as he continues to hone his technique and develop tactically, the young man stepped up big in early May at NE, starting the 2-1 win and earning Kreis’ praise for his ability to fight for every ball and be physicall as needed.

A part of that ebb - Saborio had the best season of his three-year RSL career in 2012, lighting up the league to the tune of 17 goals, five multi-goal games and three assists in 31 appearances. Super “Sabo” led RSL in scoring, was third in the league in goals behind Chris Wondolowski and Kenny Cooper and – most notably – set the new Claret-and-Cobalt record for goals in a year, breaking the mark of 16 set by Jeff Cunningham in 2006. Whether or not Sabo can do it all again in 2013 remains to be seen, but things seem to be working in his favor. The Costa Rican international enters the MLS regular season on a tear for his country and is surrounded by a greatly improved forward corps featuring Robbie Findley, Joao Plata, Olmes Garcia an Devon Sandoval. Those four newcomers should help take some of the defensive attention off of Saborio, opening up space – and hopefully creating more chances – for the skilled striker.

DEFENDER

DOB: 6/16/82

The outside back position in RSL’s 4-4-2 system is perhaps one of the most challenging spots in Major League Soccer – to call them “defenders” is simply not doing them justice. The role requires players to have the physicality to defend one-on-one, the speed and stamina to make run after run up and down the flank to provide width in attack and the technical acumen to make things happen with the ball, be it by providing crosses into the area or quick combinations with the midfield. You have to be smart, disciplined and in ridiculously good shape … in other words, you almost have to be Chris Wingert. RSL’s longest-tenured field player, Chris Wingert had one of the best seasons of his 10-year MLS career in 2012, setting career highs and finishing second amongst RSL field players with 31 league games played, 30 league games started and 2,603 minutes played. The always steady Babylon, N.Y. native was consistent as ever last season, playing rock solid defense along the left side and getting forward to help out in the attack well, registering two assists on the season. Wingert will be hard-pressed to replicate those numbers in 2013, with the 30-year-oldleft back scheduled to miss the first six weeks of the season due to a broken right metatarsal suffered during offseason training. Expect him to be his usual self – smart, disciplined and in ridiculously good shape – when he returns.

RSL’s longest-tenured player, Nick Rimando showed in 2012 why he’s considered one of the best goalkeepers in the league, turning in another stellar year in between the pipes for the Claret-and-Cobalt. The 33-year-old ‘keeper once again finished at or near the top of Major League Soccer in goals against average, wins and shutouts last season, finishing fourth in 2012 Allstate MLS Goalkeeper of the Year voting.

Some things are just meant to be, and that seemed to be the general consensus when highly-touted midfielder Enzo Martinez fell right into the lap of Real Salt Lake late in the first round of January’s MLS SuperDraft in Kansas City. Why the key cog for North Carolina’s College Cup-winning side slid to the 17th overall pick will never be known, but what is for certain is that the motivated midfielder’s savvy on the ball, mature decision-making and industrious workrate will make the native Uruguayan a perfect fit in the diamond midfield RSL has perfected under Jason Kreis. While the RSL Technical Staff gushed about the Generation adidas product’s production and ability, it was even more impressed with his maturity off the field, forcing many of the pundits who questioned where the 21-year-old might fit on the field for many teams to also admit that the Claret-and-Cobalt might just have come away with the steal of draft day.

The Claret-and-Cobalt will expect more of the same in 2013 from Rimando, who is more motivated than ever to keep performing well as he looks to lead RSL to league glory while cementing his role for the U.S. Men’s National Team.

Capable of playing any of the four spots in RSL’s midfield diamond, the versatile Grabavoy recorded the most games played, games started, minutes played and assists of his RSL career in 2012. Primarily deployed on the outside of the midfield, the incredibly technical Grabavoy became one of the Claret-and-Cobalt’s more important players last season, playing well on the field and helping to set the tone in the locker room.

Gil continued to develop in 2012, building on his solid 2011 by setting career highs in games played, games started, minutes played and assists last season. Playing at both the top and side of Real Salt Lake’s midfield diamond, the 19-year-old was more consistent than ever last year, turning in an increased amount of even performances as RSL Head Coach Jason Kreis began to rely on him more and more.

Entering the second year of a three-year contract signed before the 2012 season, Grabavoy will be counted on to play a major role again in 2013. The 28-year-old New Lenox, Ill. native looked better than ever in the 2013 preseason, exhibiting tactical awareness and on-theball calmness while excelling in nearly every preseason game he featured in.

Gil will have an even larger role in 2013, with the club’s December trade of midfielder Will Johnson to Portland opening up a more permanent spot in the first XI for the California native. Gil will have to balance his RSL duties with a busy schedule with the U.S. U-20 national team, which will play in the FIFA Under-20 World Cup in Turkey in June and July. Thankfully, Gil seems up to the challenge, saying early this preseason that he wants to “step up and prove something” in 2013.

The former San Jose Earthquake is very versatile, capable of playing on the outside or on top of RSL’s midfield diamond as well as at forward. The 6-foot-4 Stephenson isn’t afraid to let it fly, often shooting from distance – and occasionally scoring the fantastic goal – during his 2 ½ seasons in San Jose. Expect Stephenson – who, along with RSL defender Lovel Palmer, played with RSL Head Scout Andy Williams on the Jamaican National Team – to get solid minutes off the bench as well as the occasional spot start for Claret-and-Cobalt Head Coach Jason Kreis in 2013.

The former Portuguese U-17, U-18 and U-19 national teamer was a part of French club RC Strasbourg’s youth setup before transferring to Atletico after Strasbourg was relegated from Ligue 1 following 2010-2011 ...

JEFF ATTINELLA

HEIGHT: 6-2 WEIGHT: 190 HOMETOWN: Clearwater, FL ACQUIRED: December, 2012

GOALKEEPER

DOB: 9/29/88

Drafted by Real Salt Lake in the first round (14th overall) of the 2011 MLS Supplemental Draft but not signed to a contract, Attinella returned to the Claret-and-Cobalt when he signed with the team in December 2012. The Clearwater, Fla. native is far more experienced than most goalkeepers his age, having made 52 total appearances for the NASL Tampa Bay Rowdies in 2011 and 2012. Attinella had a huge 2012, leading the Rowdies to the NASL title, finishing second in NASL MVP voting and earning a spot on the league Best XI. Attinella will likely be RSL’s third-string goalkeeper behind starter Nick Rimando and probable backup Josh Saunders in 2013.

CHRIS SCHULER

DEFENDER

HEIGHT: 6-4 WEIGHT: 185 DOB: 9/6/87 HOMETOWN: Aurora, IL ACQUIRED: 2010 MLS SuperDraft (37th) PRONOUNCIATION: SHOO-ler

After taking a huge leap forward in 2011, when he made 20 league appearances and 16 MLS starts, Schuler took a step back in 2012, playing in just 13 games in an injury-riddled campaign. The Chicagoland native showed well at the beginning of the season, starting RSL’s first three matches and seven of its first 12 to help the team to a fantastic 7-3-2 record. Unfortunately, the Claret-and-Cobalt’s 13th match proved unlucky for Schuler, who suffered a bone stress response in his left foot in that game, a 1-0 win at Seattle on May 12. It’d be over three months until Schuler made his return to the first-team in RSL’s tough 0-1 loss at Houston on Sept. 6. RSL can’t afford another injury to Schuler in 2013, as the Utah side will be counting on the 6-foot-4 defender to be a game-in, game-out starter at center back following the offseason trade of defender Jamison Olave to New York. Whether he’s paired with Nat Borchers or third-center back Kwame Watson-Siriboe, Schuler is expected to show well in 2013, with Head Coach Jason Kreis expecting the fourth-year defender to breakout and earn the attention of U.S. Men’s National Team Manager Jurgen Klinsmann.

JOHN STERTZER

HEIGHT: 6-1 WEIGHT: 170 HOMETOWN: Oaktown, VA ACQUIRED: 2013 MLS SuperDraft

DOB: 2/11/91

If you were not aware of Sebastian Velasquez when Real Salt Lake selected him towards the end of the 2012 MLS SuperDraft, well, you weren’t alone … the plucky playmaker was the first Junior College player to be selected on draft day since Kansas City took another member of the RSL family, Yura Movsisyan, six years earlier. The Wasatch Front is a long way from Spartanburg Methodist College in South Carolina, but when word from collegiate scouting contacts about the “diamond-in-the-Upstate” came across RSL’s attention, due diligence by assistant coach Miles Joseph paid off for the now-21-year-old midfielder via an invite to the club’s December combine in Arizona. Velasquez impressed enough there to earn the nod to the next level, where he will be allowed plenty of time to learn how pull the strings on the top of RSL’s midfield diamond behind Javier Morales and Luis Gil.

JELD-WEN FIELD

MIDFIELDER

DOB: 10/4/90

Dubbed by some as the “most pro-ready player” in the 2013 MLS SuperDraft, Stertzer put his polish on display in the 2013 preseason, earning some rare (for a rookie) public praise from RSL Head Coach Jason Kreis at the FC Tucson Desert Diamond Cup. A big, box-to-box midfielder capable of playing on the outside or at the top of RSL’s midfield diamond, it will be interesting to see just how much the 12th overall pick from January’s MLS SuperDraft contributes during his rookie year. Expect him to challenge for minutes at outside midfield throughout the season.

ABDOULIE MANSALLY

HEIGHT: 5-10 WEIGHT: 170 HOMETOWN: Banjul, The Gambia ACQUIRED: via Discovery, 6/20/12 PRONOUNCIATION: ab - do - LYE

DEFENDER

DOB: 1/27/89

RSL pounced on Mansally after he was released by New England in May 2012, bringing in the Gambian international for a trial starting on May 30 and signing him to a full contract three weeks later. The 24-year-old did well in his first season with the Claret-and-Cobalt, appearing in five league games and starting a playoff match after moving from forward – where he played in New England – to left back. The blazing fast defender will need to carry over his solid play into 2013, as he’ll begin the year in the starting lineup with regular left back Chris Wingert out until mid-April with a broken metatarsal. Known as “Kenny” throughout his MLS career, has recently requested to be called by his given name, Abdoulie.

GOALKEEPER

DOB: 3/2/81

The former L.A. goalie should prove to be an incredibly valuable pickup, providing solid competition for RSL starting goalkeeper Nick Rimando and filling in for him should he receive probable call ins to the U.S. National Team for World Cup Qualifiers and/or this summer’s CONCACAF Gold Cup. His addition instantly gives RSL one of the top goalkeeping corps in the league and he’ll be a solid mentor for young Claret-and-Cobalt ‘keepers Jeff Attinella and Lalo Fernandez.

HEIGHT: 6-1 WEIGHT: 190 DOB: 6/16/91 HOMETOWN: Albuquerque, NM ACQUIRED: 2013 MLS SuperDraft, 29th overall (2nd Rd) PRONOUNCIATION:

Real Salt Lake gladly pounced on 2011 and 2012 MLS Cup winning goalkeeper Josh Saunders when he became available this offseason, bringing the veteran ‘keeper in for an extended trial before agreeing to a deal on Feb. 22, 2013.

JELD-WEN FIELD

HEAD COACH

ALL-TIME RECORD: 89-71-54 (MLS); 108-88-65 (all comps) COLLEGE: Duke ‘94 HOMETOWN: Omaha, NE APPOINTED: May 3, 2007 PRONOUNCIATION: KRYSE

RSL coaches really liked what they saw out of Sandoval when he trained with the Claretand-Cobalt for a week last summer, going as far as to trade up two spots in January’s MLS SuperDraft to nab the University of New Mexico product with the team’s second round pick (29th overall). Sandoval has repaid the club’s faith this preseason, playing well enough to earn himself a full contract with the team. The Albuquerque native brings a different element to Real Salt Lake’s five-man forward corps, playing the pure hold-up role that was missing at times in years past. Expect him to get some MLS time during his rookie season when Real Salt Lake Head Coach Jason Kreis wants to run a true bruiser at opposing defenses.

JEFF CASSAR

ASST. COACH

COLLEGE: Florida International University ‘97 HOMETOWN: Livonia, MI APPOINTED: May 2007 PRONOUNCIATION: cuss-SARR AS A PLAYER: Played 11 seasons as a goalkeeper for Dallas, Miami and New York from 1996-2006 ...

AS A PLAYER: scored 108 career goals w/ Dallas (1996-2004) & RSL (2005-07)

Real Salt Lake Head Coach Jason Kreis traded in his record-setting boots and captain’s armband on May 3, 2007 to become the organization’s second head coach, overhauling a previously moribund locker room to become just two seasons later the youngest Cupwinning coach in MLS history, guiding RSL to the title in 2009. Under his watch, RSL has also advanced to three of the last four Conference Finals, become the first American side to win a CONCACAF Champions League group and the first U.S. team to advance to the CCL Finals. With back-to-back-to-back 15-win MLS seasons in 2010, 2011 and 2012, Kreis’ teams have earned points in two out of every three matches they play, as the intense, demanding leader now owns an all-time 108-87-65 mark as a head coach, breaking down as follows: MLS regular-season (89-71-54), CONCACAF Champions League (8-4-4), MLS Cup Playoff (4-5-5), Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup (6-5-1) and international friendlies (3-2-1). At the time of his hire, Mr. Kreis became the youngest active head coach in MLS at 34 years and 127 days of age. Kreis works closely with former Blue Devil and Dallas Burn teammate and current RSL General Manager Garth Lagerwey regarding player acquisitions, scouting, the MLS Draft and all player personnel-related matters. The Kreis-Lagerwey partnership has resulted in the implementation of a culture where players, staff and fans work as one for the RSL shield, epitomizing a “Team is the Star” attitude. Kreis, Lagerwey and the team’s coaching staff – Jeff Cassar, Miles Joseph and C.J. Brown – compose the lone technical staff among MLS’ 18 teams comprised entirely of ex-MLS players. This distinction means that the RSL braintrust now boasts cumulative MLS experience of 74,811 total minutes, covering 923 games and including 128 goals and 22 shutouts (the equivalent of nearly 30 complete seasons of service). The RSL staff has the unparalleled ability to tap into personal experience as it guides, assists and develops RSL players.
