Colorado Rapids score two late goals to steal win over Real Salt Lake

Two injury-time goals have seen the Colorado Rapids beat 10-man Real Salt Lake.

The Rapids had the first chance of the game after 16 minutes, as Vicente Sanchez dragged an effort across goal and marginally wide of the far post.

The away side also made a good start to the game as Javier Morales went close with a free kick, but the hosts soon started to dominate when Lucas Pittinari forced the keeper into a finger-tip save.

Salt Lake's keeper Jeff Attinella then made a quick-fire double save from Sanchez and Kevin Doyle to keep the score level at half time.

Sanchez kept plugging away in his effort to score, as he flashed a bicycle kick inches wide after the break.

However, Salt Lake took the lead deep into the half when Sebastian Jaime slotted the ball in from close range following a low cross from Morales.

The Rapids hit back immediately, though, as Drew Moor powered a header into the net from a corner.

The two scorers then clashed on the pitch, and Jaime was shown a red card for hitting Moor in the middle of a fracas, and his side paid the price as Jared Watts slammed the ball in from close range in injury time.

The win was confirmed a few minutes later when Juan Edgardo Ramirez raced up the pitch to roll the ball into an unguarded net.
