SALT LAKE CITY – Trailing by one score as the 90th minute approached, Real Salt Lake was in desperate need of some late magic.

Midfielder Braian Ojeda gave the club just that with an 88-minute strike.

Atlético de San Luis took the lead in the 82nd, simultaneously silencing the crowd and lighting a fire under RSL.

The San Luis goal came off a deflection on a breakaway. The equalizer was all Ojeda, though.

He got the ball on the left side of the pitch, took a few steps toward the center, and sent a long-range curler into the right side of the net.

The score remained even through stoppage time. Setting up a penalty kicks finish for the second time in two games for Real Salt Lake.

Real Salt Lake Manages Two Points To Open Leagues Cup

Club América stunned the home crowd in the final seconds of regulation, but couldn’t maintain momentum in penalty kicks. The visitors earned a point, succumbing to Rafael Cabral in penalties, allowing Real Salt Lake to earn two points.

RSL hosted Club América at America First Field on Wednesday, July 30.

Diego Luna and William Agada scored for Real Salt Lake. Brian Rodríguez and Érick Sánchez scored for Club América.
