Sandy • The Houston Dynamo had beaten Real Salt Lake three straight times coming into Monday night’s Game 2 of the best-of-three first round playoff series. So at some point, the law of averages had to fall in RSL’s favor, right?
Diego Luna scored the final penalty kick, while Jefferson Savarino scored to tie the game in the 1-1 win.
“I think the mentality and the way you set yourself up will tend to lend itself to creating more chances, which I think then brings the law of averages in your favor sooner than later,” RSL coach Pablo Mastroeni said Sunday afternoon. Diego Luna scored the final penalty kick to secure RSL’s win. Goalkeeper ZacMath saved Houston’s first penalty kick, and RSL didn’t miss any.
Cristian “Chicho” Arango subbed into the game in the 55th minute. He had been dealing with a hamstring injury, Mastroeni said Sunday afternoon, and hadn’t played in about a month.
