Here are the power rankings following week 10:

Real Salt Lake. 20. team. 322. Road trips to the east coast have not been pleasant times for Mike Petke’s Real Salt Lake. Cody Baird nicked a first half goal on long-ball route-one soccer, but it was enough to go into halftime with a lead. When Dwyer scored to bring Orlando City level, the demeanor of the RSL team was a collective slouch. Not surprisingly, OCSC scored just a couple minutes later from a terribly defended corner kick and Real Salt Lake never mounted a sustained late attack. The first hour looked great, but RSL only celebrated one goal. Once they lost their focus and committed a mistake, their desire and commitment waned quickly. This team’s hopes of a successful season are doing the same.. 3-5-1. Previous: 18th

371. Perhaps it was Piatti<a href=. 3-6. Previous: 22nd. Montreal Impact. 19. team
